Today many people watch TV to see the films or favoriture TV series on it. Special series are interesting for the people more than others and many people continue to see the episodes of different series on TV.
We are taking these one-dimensional TV schedular world into more interactive and social environment that uses additional social media features and a brand new user-oriented interface.This is a special site that you can see the series on it. http://www.aetv.com/
Original Format: No User Account, Just ONE TV Channel, No Social Media Features
OUR PROPOSAL:
It is so good to put different parts in this site as a social media features so that people not only can check what's on on the TV but they can also discuss about their opinion about Tv programs,communicate with each other to know more about the others opinion.
It is so good to put different parts in this site as a social media features so that people not only can check what's on on the TV but they can also discuss about their opinion about Tv programs,communicate with each other to know more about the others opinion.
We start adding some social media features to the regular one TV page. Firstly, we add that twitterlink, which automatically makes search for the chosen TV program. So the user can have a look what others' currently thinking. Secondly, we add a Youtube link, so that user can watch the trailer or promo of the upcoming episode. Thirdly, There is IMDB (The internet movie database) link that everybody can go through it and see the update news about movies and actors or actress and other things. Or by looking at the evalution start on this site.
Moreover, Each user can have her or his OWN interface view and private schedule on it. This means everyone who has an account on this site can make own schedule for favoriate TV program from many TV channels.
If the user wants, she can share his/her schedule on the application. Then the application will present this user (pictures or contact info. )to the others who shares the same TV programs or series. For example, I am a fan of House MD, and I want to see the other user who are also fan of it, and contact with them withing the application or comment together about the episodes, which is another additional feature of this application. The user can see the other fans in a box under the followers link.
The users can make suggestion to each other, when they share the same taste of Tv programs. Also suggestion to change your schedule LIKE "see this series is more better than other" and suggest each other their schedule and this is a good way to take an idea and know about the other schedule.
FOR EACH TV EPISODE:
In near of the each episode every person that watch it can make a comment on it and say their opinion about this part and say the good and bad things about this episode.
In near of each episode there is a part of vote that when user choose it can go to the part that vote this episode and saw the other opinions too that how many people like this episode and the total number of people that watch this episode is shown that everybody can understand that how many people like it and how many do not like it.
So watchers ("Followers") can make a group and discuss the points of themselves and everybody who is not like it or who like it can discuss in a room that is special for this episode and discuss about their point of views of themselves.
2) Explain the benefits that is made possible by doing this
- The schedules of the Tv channels just shows for their own program. However, Our proposal application brought to user easiness that s/he can see each program/Tv series or etc. of the ANY Tv channel that s/he wants to see for the chosen day in a time schedule.
- SIMPLE AND FUN: Our application is more fun with all brand new social media feature additions.
- CREATE YOUR TV SCHEDULE: The most useful features are available for the users who have account on the application, because they can create a TV program schedule of their own.They can add their favorite Tv series or programs from different channels, which can be weekly or they can add some interesting document or movies, which are just shown for once.
- DO NOT WORRY YOU WON'T MISS ANYTHING: If anything changes, for example, change in hour or the cancellation of the TV program, the user does not need to worry!!, the schedule will adapt those changes automatically.
- SEE THE TRAILER: Addition of YOUTUBE links will enable user to watch the trailer, or fragman of the coming program/TV program.
- SEE THE CURRENT COMMENTS: Addition of Twitter link will enable user to reach the list of people who are commenting on that TV program or episode right now.
- SEE WHAT IT IS ACTUALLY: Addition of IMDB link will enable user to see and learn detailed information about any unknown, new or interesting program or episode. For the case that twitter or others comments is not helping =).
- GET SOCIALIZED!! MEET THE OTHERS: See and be able to get contact which the people who are also fan of any TV program that you are also a fan of.
3) Do a critical reflection about what would be needed for it to work
Even though it is a set-up application on your computer, non-stop internet connections would be good, actually it is necessary. As we promised that you won't miss anything, all the schedules of TV's need to be controlled periodically because of any changes.

Hello.
Your idea to create a social media for people sharing the interest of TV is inspiring I think. You are also very clear with the benefits of such a device.
There is one thing I wonder if you have any solution for and that is the very problem you mention, that users need a non stop Internet application. Many elderly people I know uses TV as a window outside there own lives and many of them have none or very limited computer skills. Therefore I wonder if you have discussed potential solutions to this constraint.

As we said a non-intrusive internet connection is needed to monitor this portal. However, user can be also informed via e-mail about the latest changes for their favorite tv programs. Checking e-mails is relatively easier than monitoring every tv programs separately :)
Also, as you mention users do not need to have advance computer knowledge. User who seeks help can be directed to the frequently asked question or help section. People may not be aware of the imdb or Twitter but they can still leave comment on something,watch trailers from Youtube, or make their own schedules by following the instructions, signs.
Hi.
You have chosen an interesting topic since it is getting more and more common to watch TV series online. It is a good idea to interact with Twitter to read interesting comments related to the TV show you are watching. I also like that you can create your own calender.
I think these social media fit the end users since it is mostly young people watching TV shows over the internet.
Good job!
Best regards
