I am looking for a graphical user interface for navigating an online library.

The resources in the library are partially sorted into collections, some of them overlapping. Also, the resources are categorized according to predetermined categories, and tagged with free tagging.

I'm thinking of Venn Diagrams, or spider-type links. It should be interesting, engaging, intuitive, easy to use.

The processing should be server-side, because many of the users have slow internet connections. I doubt anything flash will be suitable.

The software will be integrated for use in a Liferay-based online community.

Thank you very much for your help, advice, and suggestions!!

Following the success of the previous online courses, UNITAR and FAO are launching the Innovative Collaboration for Development (ICfD) course again this fall from 15 October to 14 December, 2012. 

Registrations are now open and applications must be submitted online until 28 September.

Read more about the course and the personal take of one of the course facilitator at http://www.euforicservices.com/2012/08/learning-social-media-online...

What are examples of current ways you capture, share or apply knowledge in your work? I hope some members of this group can join the USAID Agrilinks online discussion on knowledge sharing for food security and agriculture programs. We are discussing tools and approaches and would be great to have input on social media from this group. Thanks!

Hello all,

I am compiling all kinds of great resources on using social media to promote African knowledge about climate change adaptation. The crux of this assignment is really about a great introduction about social media (but of course, any resource scoring also on 'promoting African knowledge' and 'climate change adaptation' would be wonderful...

Any idea about useful resources?
