The eLogbook is a Web-Based collaborative environment particularly adapted to the needs of communities of practice. It is deployed at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne (EPFL) and developed within the framework of the Palette European Project. This paper presents the eLogbook “Context- Sensitive View” intended to increase the environment usability and acceptability by communities of practice and to support collaboration and communication by embedding different types of awareness “cues” within an innovative user- friendly interface.
