Abstract

Nowadays as Internet enables to find, publish and then share information among unfamiliar people and then enable virtual community emerges, it is natural to detect the consensus or interests from those on-line opinions or surveys, especially for those business people to acquire feedback and get senses which are beneficial for new prototypes design and products improvements. In this paper, several ways to approach community’s consensus and interest are addressed. Those ways mainly denote three kind of technologies, augmented information support (AIS), CorMap and iView, which mainly support different kinds of work during an unstructured problem solving process where creative ideas are barely required.
