SOCIAL TELEVISION
Social television (also referred to as social interactive television) is a general term for technology that supports communication and interaction in the context of watching television, or related to TV content. It also includes the study of television-related social behavior. For example, social television systems can integrate voice communication, text chat, presence and context awareness, TV recommendations, ratings, or video-conferencing with the TV set.
Social television is an active area of research and development. Most existing social television systems are on a conceptual stage, or exist as lab prototypes, beta or pilot versions.
