This paper describes the concept and some preliminary experiments of extension of the sitIT.cz portal – the social network of the ICT specialists in Czech Republic. SitIT.cz interconnects ICT specialists and offers effective search according to several types of structured – machine readable – profiles.
It is intended to support technology transfer, sharing information, building teams and to enable discussions, especially targeted to increase of competitiveness of R&D in ICT. Main stimulus for sitIT.cz extension came from acquaintance with software development which often needs extensive testing – not only technological but also from users' point of view.
