Abstract

There has been a huge growth of social network in the recent years. This trend does not only allow us to get connected and share the information in an efficient way, but also reveals some potential beneficial in dealing with several social issues, such as earthquake detection, social spam detection, flu pandemic tracking, media monitoring, etc. In this paper, we propose a new way of utilizing social network. By implementing what is called a Virtual Celebrator Machine (VCM), we are able to let everyone who has connection with this machine in term of social networking be able to share their cultural experience and points of view about certain social events locally or globally. In that way, we provide a way to reinforce the relationship and connection between people virtually, which, we believe, would help to flourish cultural heritage preservation.
