The Social Web is part of the transformations that have redefined the way people use and are affected by technology. In recent years, we have seen the emergence of various technologies, such as social categorization (folksonomies), social networking, social navigation and search, collaborative publishing and sharing, among others. The success of these technologies heavily relies on their users and the information produced and organized by them, reflecting aspects related to the user experience and how the interface was designed. The second edition of WAIHCWS aims to promote further discussion on the opportunities and challenges that the Social Web brings to the research community in human-computer interaction and related areas, focusing on the concepts of sociability and human values.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

   * Theories and mechanisms for encouraging participation and collaboration among users;
   * Methods for designing and evaluating social software;
   * Measurements and characteristics for the success of social software;
   * Emotional and affective aspects of social software;
   * Communication, collaboration, sharing, security, social norms and other aspects of sociability;
   * Identity, privacy, trust, reputation and other human values in the social software;
   * Usability and accessibility in the social software;
   * Emergency and exploitation of social knowledge.
