27. • Designing effective social
networking “affordances”
requires new research
approaches
• The project starts after the
technology is deployed - • “Design through the
a program mindset is screen” – affordances
best sometimes are meant for
offline actions
• Platforms and their
ecosystems are not • Need to understand the
the end of the influence and synergies
journey across culture, media, &
“work”
• Avoid the intellectual
elitism regarding • Prepare for a “design
“social everything” renaissance”
• Identity: “My Enterprise Identity” redefines how we view and classify people
• Social Graph: Extensible beyond people relations (add content, locations… )
• Activity Streams: Enables social presence and collective awareness
• Social Objects: A key mechanism for inviting people to participate
