Hide and Seek: the Information Architecture & Design for Working with Filtered Content in the OpenChoice Filtering Project

Don Turnbull

This poster will display and review a series of information architecture and design decisions for OpenChoice, an open source filtering service that would improve upon the utility of currently available Web content filters. Featured will be information architectures and interfaces for adminstering the OpenChoice system including using webs of trust and open source statistical modeling software. Administrators and users require easy to understand interfaces for data analysis results be they in the form of graphs, charts, lists or thumbnails of potentially filtered content. Other design examples provided will be for the visual display of a content taxonomy.

The goal of this poster is to show the current designs and overall information architecture for the system and to solicit feedback from the IA community for methods and ideas to improve the OpenChoice system.
