The Filter Bubble

We propose a network system, that does not use a personalized data profile of the user, and neither searches completely random. It uses the emotional state, as temporal and dynamic profile of the user. This way a user is able to be connected to information, without being affected by the filter bubble, nor having to filter through random information of him- or herself. “A filter bubble is a situation in which a website algorithm selectively guesses what information a user would like to see based on information about the user (such as location, past click behavior and search history) and, as a result, users become separated from information that disagrees with their viewpoints, effectively isolating them in their own cultural or ideological bubbles.” (source: wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filter_bubble)
