Abstract
PHOAKS is a system that automatically recognizes URLs recommended in Usenet messages and continuously updates a large web site that summarizes the recommendation data. We view the automatically generated pages as 'rough drafts' that users help to refine. We report here on the mechanisms that allow users to do this, our rationale for these mechanisms, and the issues raised by involving thousands of remote anonymous users in the continuous design of web content.
