>From the abstract:
"This paper seeks to take Information Seeking research and apply it as a
framework for understanding the World Wide Web environment
and to identify opportunities for augmenting information seeking by
applying Bibliometric analysis, filtering techniques, and
collaborative technologies to Web usage data that can, in turn leverage a
Web user's Information Seeking behavior. "
