Abstract

YouTube3D is a 3D prototype for accessing video streams on the web, conceived for stimulating exploration and information re-finding, promoting collaboration and enhancing the sense of community. It is based on a 3D metaphorical city built by the collaborative activity of different categories of users, from high-level designers that are responsible for the public areas of the world to ordinary users that populate their private areas according to their specific interests.
