Designing visualizations of social activity: six claims

In this paper, we describe a set of claims that have evolved from our work in designing visual representations of groups in online environments. We argue that these claims can serve as a good starting point for design work, and can drive critical discussions amongst design stakeholders. Keywords CMC, chat, guidelines, instant messaging, multi-user environments, social computing, visualization.
