Navigation in Hypertext

Social Navigation

When a tourist visit a city and want to know the way to a particular place, he may ask some person on the street. He is using social navigation. In hypertext context, social navigation can mean interacting with other users (direct), or studying what a group of users does (indirect) [Neumueller]. Other users here may be advice-givers. Social navigation is very similar to the human habit of asking people around for help.
