We had a great session with Mark Yolton during the Mentor wolfpack sessions at #sapteched, lot of great ideas had flown in from folks expressing to Mark and @chiprodgers, suggestions around taking the user experience in SCN to the next level, in another note there were random questions too. My question to Mark was around making #sapteched more colorful and #Social snazzy
Someone also asked this question to @Nathomson during one of her social networking sessions, even @Sylviasant had her own show to help people understand “why one should be on twitter”
Construct
The Idea was to have #HANA analyze the event specific tweets and compute the outputs onto a big screen showing “what’s trending at #sapteched”
Don’t know, if some of you have seen the http://www.weather.com/social/national/ to check what’s trending on the weather forecast
In one dashboard view, its evident what’s making “THE NEWS” out there
If you consider the Lounge area or some area that has maximum traffic of people, place this Social Monitor right in that spot and show “What’s trending at “
Don’t call me crazy, but the overall architecture would look something like this.
The whole idea of having this Trend Dashboard during an event helps attendees with
1) Identifying what’s trending at the event
2) Top tweets that keep rolling on the side of the monitor give a feeling of thought leadership that’s being transmitted across the web
3) Demonstrate to the audience what’s making news and where should people focus amidst their scheduled sessions
4) Taking the “Social Media footprint of SAP” to the next level
5) Engage new users that might not even know what “twitter and SAP” we are talking about
Imagine if someone was staring at a big monitor like the ones we see at the airport or a theatre, how effective that would look and what thought process would be running in the minds of that target audience, some of which may not even realize what’s going on -> try and on-board and learn whats trending and shift their focus
I think the proposition is not very wild and we can maximize the #hastag implication when tweeting about an event
If this has great audience pull: It can be built in a way that would definitely be re-usable and at the same time, extremely “a attendee engaging widget”
Thoughts from the audience are welcome and if we all opine on this, it’s a great initiative to take forward to Mark and Chip’s table
