This work addresses social network management for users, but it is incremental as it builds on existing design principles without introducing major innovations.

The paper tackled the problem of managing contacts in social networks by designing an interface called Social Cheesecake that addresses context separation and tie strength, resulting in a prototype built using HTML5 and JavaScript.

Social network management interfaces should consider separation of contexts and tie strength. This paper shows the design process upon building the Social Cheesecake, an interface that addresses both issues. Paper and screen prototyping were used in the design process. Paper prototype interactions helped to explore the metaphors in the domain, while screen prototype consolidated the model. The prototype was finally built using HTML5 and Javascript.
