Abstract:

FishWrap is an experimental electronic newspaper system available at MIT. FishWrap attempts to address the needs of the freshman integrating into the MIT community. FishWrap attempts this by balancing an individual’s desire for personalization with the need to participate and know about the world at large. This paper describes the scope of the experiment, the underlying technology, and the evaluation by participants.
