Abstract
The Internet has became a social place. It allows us to exchange our thoughts and opinions with other people who have similar interests or goals. However, existing communication systems such as e-mail, BBS (Bulletin Board System), chat and instant messaging systems have limitations on eliciting and circulating opinions in a community1 because of communication costs that block talking various opinions between community members. We consider that social intelligence is a property of a community that enables the members to exchange and evolve their implicit knowledge. To augment social intelligence of a community, facilitating elicitation and circulation of hidden opinions of the members by reducing the communication costs are required.
