Adding emotional tag to augment context-awareness in social network services

In this paper we address the challenges and design considerations to add emotional tag to existing Internet-based social network services. We propose an emotion tagger that takes content from diversified Internet-based services and maps the analyzed content to an emotional value which can be used to augment semantic values of Internet-based service. To show a proof of concept working environment, we add the proposed emotion tagger with our earlier developed context-aware social network framework called SenseFace and investigate the efficiency of the tagger. We finally present our preliminary integration results.
