What drives me?

What drives me? That's hard, right? It's difficult for people to inspect themselves.

What drives me keep moving? I guess that's because I am energic, I want to see more and learn more. I don't want to stay the same all the time, and I want to challege myself. Also, I am still young, I would like to do my best to lay a solid foundation, or maybe I will regret later.

What drives my research work? As the scale of Internet and the applications of Web 2.0 have significantly increased over the last years, social networks based intelligent systems like MySpace and Facebook that integrate users' social behaviors and preferences have gained huge popularity, and thus activate my intense research interests in Social Network Analysis and related fields like Web Search and Data Mining. These topics are really hot today, people from everywhere keep talking about them, these areas provide a promising future. But the most important is, I like them!
