33. A social computing system, comprising:
-
a model creator configured to create an initial model of a user; a model enhancement module configured to analyze and record interactions of the user with other users in a social network to update and adjust the initial model to provide an enhanced model for the user; an interaction module configured to permit searches by the user to search one of an initial model and an enhanced model of other users wherein the interaction module calculates a personality match score between models of users in the social network indicating closeness based on one or more criteria; and a visualization graph generated by the interaction module based on closeness criteria between the user models. - View Dependent Claims (34, 35)
