We argue that enhancing TV experiences with community and interactivity elements (“Web 2.0”style) requires an open service infrastructure that allows third parties from outside the iTV domain (e.g., web service providers, telco operators, and end-users) to easily integrate such services into an iTV service offering. We have developed a set of service enablers that form the basis for this infrastructure.

This chapter provides an introduction to and overview of social television, in an attempt to find the real meaning of the term. It explores the history and current state of social television, looks at a number of examples of Social TV systems and their features, compares different definitions of the term, and outlines dimensions of design that have been used to organize the topic. The author argues that historically the notion of social television is intimately bound up with television itself, and that the two remain difficult to separate even today. The convergence of content and communication to create social media is turning Social TV into a reality and in the process turning television into what it was originally intended to be. IntroductIon The term “social television,” or “Social TV,” is not new, but over the last few years it has acquired a specific technical meaning. It is used to refer to a variety of experimental systems that claim to support social experiences for television viewers, and to the research into such experiences. This book testifies to the brisk activity going on in this area of study. To understand what all the research is about, we should first understand more precisely what Social TV is. That is the question explored in this chapter. It is investigated from a number of perspectives. First, we look at the history of social experiences for the TV, a history that stretches back much further than usually acknowledged. We will see that it has its roots in the very earliest DOI: 10.4018/978-1-60566-656-3.ch001

This chapter focuses on traditional and emergent challenges for the Social (i)TV area focusing on explaining the development and evaluation of one of the first Social iTV prototypes and looking at the challenges new media is introducing to this research field. The authors begin by explaining the conceptualization, development and evaluation process of the 2BeOn system and continue with the most important results from it’s evaluation with a particular focus on the results that can be important when developing any Social iTV platform. In the last part of the chapter recent developments in the broadcast of TV and Audiovisual content, namely considering the Internet as a medium, are addressed. In this scope authors propose a categorization of emergent online distribution platforms along with a set of social activities users perform on those platforms. Taking in consideration some of the challenges surrounding the presented scenario the chapter ends with the conceptualization of UMCA, a system that could increase social interaction activities performed during the consumption of online AV/TV content.

Social TV provides co-located and geographically distributed TV spectators with facilities for jointly watching television and for social interaction. In this chapter the authors discuss Social TV from a computer-supported cooperative work perspective by introducing Social TV, presenting computersupported cooperative work and its requirements for technological support of social interaction, and by identifying key issues of Social TV concepts and applications—thereby particularly focussing on group awareness, communication, and seamless integration. In particular, this chapter aims to provide users and developers of Social TV systems with concepts and base technology from computer-supported cooperative work and ubiquitous computing as a basis of advanced Social TV.

In this chapter, the author introduces 12 heuristics for evaluating the sociability of social interactive television systems. He first introduce the social uses of television, documented by many scholars in media studies, as well as the relatively new concept of sociability in new technologies. He then explain how the heuristics are based on a thorough analysis of several user studies the author performed with several social interactive television systems, as well as of literature that reports lab studies and field studies with such systems. Finally, each heuristic is presented and explained in more detail, along with some more specific guidelines. Geerts hopes these heuristics will enable designers and evaluators of social interactive television systems to make sure they support the social uses of television and create sociable systems.

Mobile TVs have been available for many years, without ever becoming very popular. Moreover, the first wave of research has been mostly concerned with technology and standards, which are necessary to ensure interoperability and market acceptance. Although, there has been a significant body of computer supported co-operative work (CSCW) and mobile human-computer interaction (HCI) research findings, there is limited investigation in the context of leisure activities, such as TV. In this chapter, the author proposes three concepts that drive the main paths for research and practice in mobile and social TV: (1) Mobile TV as a content format, (2) Mobile TV as user behavior and (3) Mobile TV as interaction terminal. Further research should elaborate on these three concepts and highlight the cultural impact of mobile TV.
