Consideration for social navigation gives rise to a classification framework based on the synchronicity, directness, and social presence in social interaction, each of which has direct effect on the cognitive costs of navigational tasks. Finally, a new recommender system, TRAILGUIDE, is presented as a tool that facilitates social navigation by allowing authors to explicitly publish "trails" within and between World Wide Web pages.
