TV Timelines: What Do Social Media Agencies Have To Say?

By Katie Onson


There's no denying the fact that television is one of the most engaging media outlets in the world. I am sure that most will attest to such a fact, especially when you look at the various reality shows and dramas which gain the attention of various audiences. Twitter has recognized this, which has brought about a tool known as TV Timelines. Social media agencies, as well as related entities, can tell you why this very tool matters.

Mashable posted an article that spoke about how social media impacts the way in which people watch TV. Nielson released results of a study, which showed that 15% of viewers enjoy television more then there's some kind of social media channel at play. When this happens, communication about various shows can be carried out. By proxy, this helps people enjoy those very shows to greater degrees than they probably would have otherwise.

With these results in mind, it's no surprise that Twitter released TV Timelines. The way that you are invited to use this system is when you tweet out a show-centric hashtag in a message. Once you accept this invitation, you'll be able to benefit from a streamlined Twitter feed that'll show you not only other tweets but news about your favorite shows. In addition, everything is clean, meaning that the experience in question will be easier to read.

Second-screen experiences are nothing new in media, especially when companies such as WWE have been able to latch onto this earlier. However, given the massive reach of Twitter that social media agencies can attest to, one can argue that their experience with TV Timelines will be stronger. Given the vast amount of TV shows, and the interest in each of them, and there's a great level of potential to consider. It's just a matter of whether or not it's realized, which firms like fishbat will undoubtedly observe.

Hopefully TV Timelines will prove to be a profitable venture for Twitter. They know how popular TV is and just how much discussion occurs in relation to those shows. It's just a matter of harnessing that conversation and making certain that users receive as much news as possible. When this happens - and I am sure that others can agree - Twitter users will be that much more eager to keep utilizing TV Timelines when new episodes of their favorite shows air.
