Abstract. There is a widespread belief that ‘community ’ has been greatly diminished in many areas, partly attributed to the isolation and weak social ties encouraged by modern technology such as tele-vision, computer games and the Internet. We explore a photo display application which may help to reinforcing the community’s values, support community ties and integrate individuals into the commu-nity. 1
