In this demonstration we present WebTribe, a tool for community discovery based on the analysis of large discussion forums or e-mail repositories. In this tool, communications are tracked in real time, analyzed according to a reference ontology, and a summary of users' activity is built in an incremental way. The demonstration will illustrate how communities are identified and updated depending on the semantics and structure of communications between users.
