I left some comments in the document. The biggest thing is getting information at last year’s workshop (number of papers submitted, number accepted, number of attendees, etc). That’s the only information I don’t have.
Thanks,
Dominic

What are the political/economic/social/legal implications of social machines (both realized and in the future). Are social machines always a “social good”? Is there a dark side to social machine (digital witch hunts, the Anonymous group, etc) ? Do social machines make computers more social, or people more like machines? What are the ethics of social machines, and social machine research? How would we view social machines through other philosophical lenses and ideologies (Critical, Feminist, Post-Colonialist, Pragmatic, Interpretivist, etc)?
