1) Social media has reached mass maturity globally, with nearly 50% of internet users in even the least engaged markets participating in some form of social media activity in the past month.
2) Total social engagement levels have plateaued, indicating that the period of massive growth is over. However, gaps between emerging and developed markets in social engagement are smaller than often reported.
3) Users are shifting from creating content to sharing and distributing others' content in real-time through status updates and tweets, moving the focus of social media from content creation to live sharing and commentary.

Executive Summary
This year’s key developments will centre on online video, mobile apps and further moves towards
distributed content. Mounting problems around online display advertising will lead to a burst of
innovation around journalism business models.
More specifically …
· Facebook/Google/Apple battle intensifies over the future of mobile and the discovery of content
· Messaging apps continue to drive the next phase of the social revolution
· Mobile browsing speeds up thanks to initiatives by platforms and publishers
· Ad-blocker/publisher wars move to mobile - they rage through 2016
· Fraud and fake traffic further undermine faith in online advertising
· Renewed focus on paid content of different flavours (given above) including crowd funding,
membership and micropayment
· Explosion of 360° video, auto-play video and vertical video (get used to it!)
· Growth of identified web (sign in and registration will be critical to delivering cross platform
personal content and notifications)
· Breakthrough year for Robo-journalism– strikes in newsrooms over job losses
· Another year of spectacular cyber attacks and privacy breaches
· More measurement of attention/impact, less measurement of clicks
· Messaging apps go mainstream at work (eg Slack, Hipchat, FB at work)
· Scheduled TV viewing on the slide as more viewing shifts to on-demand
· Rebirth of audio driven by internet delivery to mobile devices
Technology to watch for
· Virtual Reality (VR) hype goes into overdrive; leaves non-gamers cold
· Artificial intelligence (AI) and messaging bots
· Bendy and flexible phones; wireless charging finally takes off
· Drones go mainstream with registration required in most countries
· Smart mirrors just one example of growing visibility of the Internet of Things
Everywhere we will see the growth of analytics and data-informed decision-making in technology,
marketing and even publishing. In a few years’ time, it will seem extraordinary how uninformed we once
were.

Social Media Disclosure - Is Now the Time? - June 14, 2011Darrell Heaps
The use of social media by institutional and retail investors is growing at a significant rate. Companies that have embraced social media as a core element of their disclosure are seeing a substantial increase in awareness of their company and their ability to attract and influence investors.
Based on these findings, on June 14, 2011 Q4 sponsored a Lunch ‘n’ Learn session at the 2011 NIRI Annual Conference which sought to answer this question:
‘Is now the time for all companies to adopt social media disclosure and move beyond compliance to a more efficient and effective model of disclosure?’

Social Media Tracker - Universal McCann - The Socialisation of Brands - Wave 5Wikonsumer Research
Social media is an incredibly dynamic environment. Terms like “friend” and
“influencer” are no longer adequate to describe the array of social activity and
interaction that is occurring amongst the vast communities now being built online.
A deeper understanding of consumer needs and motivations is the key to unlocking a
real understanding of social media and its users.
Social networks are becoming powerful hubs of interconnected communities but it’s
not just people that are connecting in the social media space. There is huge demand
for a more social and interactive relationships with brands.
Almost half of the Active Internet Universe has already joined a brand community.
These communities are also clearly having a huge benefit to the brands involved,
driving brand loyalty, endorsement and sales.
However, understanding the nature of social demand for each consumer, category and market is the key to creating a successful social media experience.
This report barely scratches the surface of the rich insight and detail available.
Wave 5 – The Socialisation Of Brands contains information for 20 categories in more than 54 countries. You will find contact details if you require further information at the end of this report.
Wave 5 - The Socialisation of Brands | UM | Social Media TrackerUM Wave
Wave 5 - the socialisation of brands, told us that there was huge demand
for social interaction with brands. However, the nature and depth of this interaction varied wildly from person to person and category to category. But those brands that could create
the right experience benefitted enormously, driving brand loyalty, endorsement and
sales.

Social media Entertainment 2011 report from GlobalWebIndex
1. Annual Report 2011:
Welcome to Social Entertainment
The most detailed set of data on your online audience ever compiled

2. globalwebindex - Annual Report 2011
2010: Welcome to the Social Entertainment Age
The first year of the GlobalWebIndex has revealed three clear trends in the consumer adoption of the internet. In combination they are driving a new age of social
entertainment through internet platforms. In this report, we analyse the current global situation and the opportunities for the future for professional media, content
producers and brands:
Social media has reached mass maturity. Today it’s no longer about massive growth but a shift of already active social consumers to ‘real-time’ technologies, such
as status updates or tweets. The old view of text-based social media, defined by blogs and forums, is being surpassed, moving the impact of social media, from
creating content and publishing to sharing other people’s content and ‘live’ opinions about real-world events. In short ‘real-time’ is re-orientating consumer from creator
to distributor and moving the focus to traditional media and professional content.
The open browser-based web is losing out to packaged internet platforms such as mobile apps, internet connected TVs, tablets, e-readers, pc apps, gaming and
video platforms. These packaged platforms are re-engineering the internet and destroying the notion of the internet being a singular entity. Crucially for the
entertainment revolution, they provide professional media with the means to create sustainable internet business models, something the economics of the
browser-based web totally failed to enable.
Professional “traditional style” content is now a core part of the consumer online experience. Internet platforms, for hundreds of millions of consumers, are
increasingly the entertainment platform of choice. This is due to continual growth of professional content in video sites (legal and illegal), the rise of ‘real-time’, and the
growth of packaged platforms.

3. globalwebindex - Annual Report 2011
2010: Welcome to the Social Entertainment Age
These trends will revolutionise our view of the internet. In particular, the packaged
internet will transform the way we get online, the content we consume, and the ways Rise of the
we can create, share and communicate. Going forward five years it is clear that many
people’s internet experience will not be through a browser, but through some form of packaged
packaged platform. While many ‘internet purists’ will bemoan their lack of openness,
the creation of barriers to entry, and shift in control to small numbers of gatekeepers, internet
packaged platforms crucially enable professional media to create sustainable
businesses online without having to change the way that the open web works.
This is as important, if not more important, for a healthy society as enabling
consumers to publish and share their opinions or content. The open browser based
internet has failed to create the economics to deliver professional media business
online, as advertising could not demand the premiums needed and consumers are
unwilling to pay for content delivered through a browser. These changing commercial
opportunities will capitalise on the consumer demand for social entertainment online.
They will however have to change the way that they create and deliver content and
make sure they integrate social technologies into their product.
Professional Social
Content Entertainment
Increasingly ‘real-time’ social will be integrated with the traditional content experience.
Imagine live Twitter style messaging around major TV events or programming Explosion
recommended by your social network. This will extend the impact of social media
outside of the browser as well as surpassing the old models of delivering media, such
as cable TV, satellite, radio or newspaper
2011 and beyond is a promising to be an extremely interesting period of innovation.
Next year the GlobalWebIndex will track these shifts through 26 countries, 3 waves of
research and 90,000 surveys.

The fast growing web markets of Brazil, India, Malaysia, Poland and Russia lead the
way in social networking and micro-blogging involvement. However, they also have
very high levels of involvement in blogging and forums, showing that there is a two-tier
involvement between real-time and old time social platforms.

means that consumers can no longer shape the agenda through long form content

external events are what define consumer involvement.
• The bottom up dynamic, that defined early social platforms is being eroded. This is
particularly stark with micro-blogs, as we all seek to connect and follow with people
in the public eye. Its no surprise that celebrities, politicians, sports people,
journalists and musicians dominate the rankings on Twitter Figure 5: Frequency of updating micro-blog – status updates. Global Data
