Topics at the event will include:
- security and privacy;
- leveraging the social graph in systems design;
- real-time monitoring and query processing;
- database issues for offline analysis;
- experiences with deployed systems;
- crawlers and other mechanisms for observing social network structure;

- tools for designing and deploying social networks;
- network dynamics, relationships between network links and user behaviour;
- benchmarks, modelling, and characterisation;
- methods for integrating multiple networks;
