  • We’re trying to bring brand advertisers into the conversation. When the Ford Fusion, for example, is integrated into an episode of “White Collar,” it’s then easy for us to promote that positioning or brand integration in platforms like Character Chatter.
  • We don’t want people to view something as an ad, we want people to view it as added content to their “White Collar” show experience.
  • Viewers using the Viggle platform can access interesting plot points, Q&As, live polls—things like that—while watching the show.

  • The term social TV is just going to go away. It’s going to become the way that we all do creative executions across multiple platforms while engaging with users. I also think we are going to see an adoption explosion as cable companies start devising more second-screen companion experiences and the electronic programming guides include some type of visual indicator letting subscribers know of the enhanced program that goes along with the show.

  • So what’s to become of the dozens of startups that came out of the second-screen craze? “There’s definitely going to be a lot of consolidation that happens,” said Jesse Redniss,
  • According to i.TV, GetGlue will remain a separate product while letting it benefit from i.TV’s “broader platform of partners and services.” Provo, Utah-based i.TV claims 15 million people use its TV app every month. ”Together, i.TV and GetGlue will reshape the social TV and second screen landscape,” i.TV CEO Brad Pelo said in announcing the deal.
  • In a fight for survival, ConnecTV has pivoted its strategy. Last week the startup, whose investors include 10 broadcast station groups, released an overhaul of its app refocused on a simple idea: It lets users “clip” six-second video segments from among 400 live TV channels and share them on Twitter and Facebook, via a link in email or within the app.

  • ConnecTV’s previous app had signed up only 980,000 registered users; other social TV players are similarly tiny. U.K. second-screen import Zeebox, even with the backing of NBCU, Comcast and Viacom, has tallied only around 3.5 million registered users in the U.S. (it doesn’t disclose how many are active). Viggle, which rewards users for tuning in to TV, has made very little headway: It counted just 757,273 monthly active users for June.
  • An eMarketer analysis this month of several industry surveys conducted this year showed that just 15%-17% of TV viewers engaged in real-time socializing about the TV shows they were watching.

  • If done right, “casting” just might be the “killer” app the second screen world has been looking for.
  • The report pinpoints which apps are resonating with consumers (and why), and focuses on the new role “casting” content is playing in the second screen ecosystem.
  • “However, we also noted several apps — including Amazon Instant Video, M-Go, and several TV Everywhere services — that currently have no identifiable casting experience,” said Chuck Parker, chairman of the 2nd Screen Society.

  • report also delves into the two major use-cases of second screen apps: the second screen as a companion experience and as a multi-screen viewing experience; and examines how developers and publishers have taken advantage of 4G LTE networks to create second screen apps experiences — especially for sporting events — that allow for seamless access in and out of the home.
