Particularly, a remarkable effort has been made in the context of Web service discovery, a very important and active research domain. In fact, the number of Web services has grown rapidly and the task of their discovery resting on standards, UDDI and ebXML becomes more and more difficult. The most proposed approaches for Web services discovery focused on the description of Web services themselves and neglect their interaction with each other. In this paper, we use the concepts of social networking, the principles of recommender systems and Web services communities, in the context of Web 2.0, introduced in our previous work to significantly reduce this task. The obtained results seem promising.enWeb serviceSocial web serviceSocial NetworkDiscoveryRecommendationCommunityArticle
