TV Social: contribuição para a delimitação do conceito

What is it about?

The term ‘Social TV’ has been used to describe a broad range of phenomena generally involving, commentary on televised content through online social networks. It is necessary, however, to characterize and better define this concept due to the different modes of articulation that exist between TV and the Internet and the different manifestations of participatory culture in the environment of convergence. This article proposes to discuss Social TV as an interactional practice founded on conversation via the Internet, and an act based on televised content, through interactive platforms/technologies linked to strategies of the television and/or software development industries, which are able to provide the experience of watching something together from a mode of presence generated by the sharing of these pieces of content at the same time.
