| August 27, 2014 | Toward Connected Shared Experiences | To move beyond the current "talking heads" paradigm and enable truly natural and immersive shared experiences, video-mediated communication systems must be able to understand the context of the shared activity as well as the social layer of interaction. |
| June 11, 2014 | Social Multimedia Crawling for Mining and Search | Social multimedia can be leveraged for a wide range of applications, but mining and search systems require innovative crawling solutions to meet both technical and policy-related obstacles. |

| January 29, 2013 | Crowdsourcing Medical Research | Researchers can use data from social websites dedicated to patients to develop a deeper understanding of disease processes and devise more effective treatments. |
| November 27, 2012 | Customer Service 2.0: Where Social Computing Meets Customer Relations | Social computing is moving customer relations from private spaces into the public space. |
| September 20, 2012 | Understanding Facebook: Social Computing Isn't ‘Just’ Social | By understanding how social network sites work, researchers can better assess their effects on different kinds of social interactions as well as the associated benefits and risks. The Web extra at http://youtu.be/_Dz9FR1Bf-U is a video interview with column editor John Riedl, who discusses the topics and writing styles that work best if you're interested in writing for the Social Computing column. |
| July 17, 2012 | The Answer Is Out There: Online Q&A Sites | A diverse set of online question and answer sites has emerged for users seeking information beyond simple search queries. |
| May 30, 2012 | Toward a New Search Paradigm-Can We Learn from Ants? | Modeling Web users as virtual ants offers a promising new solution to the challenge of information-retrieval optimization. |
