Logging and Expressing Literal Communication: A XML Based Implementation

The context of literal communication is important for perception but hard to capture and express. A technique was introduced to log time sequences and receivers of conversations. Logs were processed into XML at the server side and represented via XSLT to suit both rich and lean client. Browser/Server architecture was adopted to build the framework. However the proposed technique is suitable for all Client/Server applications as long as the underlying communication layer supports HTTP. The implementation is a step forward towards a comprehensive online community infrastructure.
