The most widely recognized form of spam is e-mail spam, however the term “spam” is used to describe similar abuses in other media and mediums. Spam 2.0 (or Web 2.0 Spam) is refereed to as spam content that is hosted on online Web 2.0 applications. In this paper: we provide a definition of Spam 2.0, identify and explain different entities within Spam 2.0, discuss new difficulties associated with Spam 2.0, outline its significance, and list possible countermeasure. The aim of this paper is to provide the reader with a complete understanding of this new form of spamming.

The Virtual Museum of the Pacific is a digital ecosystem implemented as Web 2.0 application that experiments with information and knowledge acquisition for a digital collection of museum artifacts from the Australian Museum. The Virtual Museum of the Pacific allows several search methods: attribute search based on a control vocabulary, query refinement and query-by-example but importantly it facilitates a number of social media interfaces that enable content to be added and tagged, the control vocabulary to be extended, user perspectives to be defined and narratives added via wiki. We characterize the design of the Virtual Museum of the Pacific as: a semantic Web application with a Web services back-end, and as a digital ecosystem by identifying its purpose, function and stakeholders. In doing so, the paper illustrates the issues encountered in its design and deployment, the technical platform, the historical context of the growth of the collection and the challenges to the organiza...

We consider a digital business ecosystem environment where SMEs cooperate and compete. We aim to provide to each SME and the ecosystem with knowledge management mechanisms to support their needs for information, service findings and recommendations. We present the design and implementation of a platform that supports the knowledge management needs in this environment. We describe the business related knowledge managed by the knowledge base (KB), as well as the architectural components and the core services supported by the KB infrastructure. Since the SMEs are independent and their KB contents are evolving we adopted a P2P framework for the cooperation of SMEs. We present the P2P framework and we outline the knowledge discovery and replication mechanisms supported by the implementation. The knowledge management mechanisms described in this paper form the infrastructure for knowledge management of the Digital Business Ecosystem IP project of EU.
