Abstract

Social TV systems provide groups of TV spectators with technical support for colocated and geographically distributed TV watching and social interaction. This article provides a systematic overview of the design space of Social TV and suggests a technical framework for flexible Social TV providing groups of TV spectators with sophisticated yet easy-to-use support for colocated and geographically distributed TV watching and social interaction. It sketches a scenario of advanced Social TV and then reviews previous concepts and systems as well as studies on Social TV to come to an in-depth presentation of design dimensions of Social TV. It introduces the Cooperative Media Space for Social TV as a technical platform for flexible support of advanced Social TV along the identified design dimensions.
