In the first few months of 2022, Twitch viewers watched a total of 6.13 billion hours of livestreamed content and fans are showing no sign of slowing down. Over the last decade, video game streaming has become big business. This success is due in part to the fact that streaming sites have become about so much more than just playing video games. They provide a sense of community, a social and cultural hub for people to come together and share their stories. But these platforms are also subject to the commercial whims of the corporations that own them. What do the video game services of the future look like? How do they profit from users without compromising relationships with them? And how can we make sure social justice and equity are keystones of this conversation?  Nathan J JacksonNathan J Jackson is a PhD candidate in the School of the Arts and Media, Faculty of Arts, Design & Architecture at UNSW Sydney. His ethnographic study of the platform Twitch combines performance, media, and games lenses to examine the construction and performance of persona in video game livestreaming. He is interested in the ways that streamers and spectators perform for and with each other, and the emergent social, cultural, and political value systems that accompany these performances. He has been published in Persona Studies and Convergence journals, with a forthcoming contribution in the first edited collection on livestreaming culture.  For more information, visit unsw.to/NathanJJacksonSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On fait le point sur les dernières news !Thibault Tourvieille de Labrouhe09:31 (il y a 2 heures)À moiGaming : La guerre des plateforme de StreamingSi vous ne faites pas attention à l'influence du gaming sur la culture populaire en 2021, vous passez à côté d'une tendance majeure. Le jeu vidéo est devenu une référence culturelle, comme le cinéma ou la musique.D'ailleurs, le chiffre d'affaires mondial de l'industrie du gaming dépasse les chiffres d'affaires combinés des secteurs du cinéma et de la musique. Et oui évidemment c'est aussi un business.La diffusion en direct de jeu vidéo est devenue un enjeu important en quelques années. D'un côté, la demande en consommation de vidéo de gaming est en hausse continue. Et de l'autre les streamers en direct ont prouvé qu'ils étaient capables de créer des communautés fortes et de monétiser leurs audiences.L'industrie connaissant une énorme croissance, la concurrence entre les plateforme s'intensifie.Twitch, Youtube, Facebook Gaming : Toutes les plateformes social media veulent une part du gâteau. Nous sommes en pleine bataille pour la suprématie du streaming.—-C'est quoi une plateforme de Streaming de jeu vidéoC'est une plateforme sociale sur laquelle on peut diffuser en direct ses parties de jeu video. Les internautes peuvent visionner et interagir en direct avec le joueur. ——Comment se réparti le marché du streaming de jeux vidéosTwitch représente 72 % des parts de marché, YouTube Gaming en représente 15 % et Facebook Gaming un peu plus de 12 %.Twitch, le leader incontesté du streamingTwitch c'est une plateforme historique qui a fêté ses 10 ansTwitch a été créé en 2011 puis racheté en 2015 par Amazon.Montant du deal, pratiquement un milliard de dollars. Aujourd'hui, Twitch rapporte 15 milliards de dollars par an au Groupe Amazon.Twitch a connu une explosion de sa popularité au cours de 2021. L'audience est passée de 3,1 milliards d'heures visionnées au premier trimestre 2020 à 6,3 milliards d'heures visionnées pour le premier trimestre 2021.source—Le contenu disponible sur Twitch évolueSi la plateforme reste très Gaming, le jeu devient de plus en plus un alibi pour des discussions plus vastes entre le créateur et ses audiences. A ce titre, la catégorie « Just Chatting » représente 12 % du contenu regardé sur Twitch.Twitch cherche à explorer tous les territoiresASMR en fleche sur twitchTwitch étend ses partenariats de marque aux contenus non e-sportFacebook GamingEn 2020, Microsoft annonçait la fermeture de son service de streaming Mixer. Une plateforme concurrente de Twitch qui a longtemps caressé le doux rêve de devenir la plateforme leader.

Le gaming sur mobile. A ce titre l'application mobile de Facebook gaming est un cran au dessus de celle de Twitch. Elle permet de streamer ses jeux depuis son mobile.—Facebook Gaming favorise la monétisation pour les créateurs de contenusC'est une manière pour la plateforme de concurrencer ses grands adversaires Twitch et YouTube. Facebook propose un programme appelé Level Up avec des formats publicitaires empruntés à Twitch (les fameuses donatiosn en direct par les audiences).On trouve aussi un nouveau format de publicité interstitielle. Le streamer peut pendant son live balancer des coupures pub de 30 à 120 secondes et est rémunéré par la plateforme.—Des jeux en streaming dans le cloud sur Facebook GamingFacebook propose aussi un certain nombre de jeu disponible en streaming dans le Cloud. Le service est encore en version Beta pour l'instant et Facebook ne propose qu'une vingtainn de titres à ce jour.sourceFacebook lance de nouveaux groupes de fans autour du gamingCes groupes ont la vocation de réunir des joueurs partageant la même passion pour un jeu ou un éditeur.Ces groupes comporteront un nouveau type de posts pour aider la communauté à former une équipe de jeu au sein du groupe, ces posts s'appellent « recherche de joueur » .Et puis après une session de Gaming sur Facebook Gaming, vous aurez la possibilité de promouvoir votre groupe auprès de joueurs potentiellement intéressés pour le rejoindre.

Now more than ever we are all spending a significant portion of our lives online, from remote working to our entertainment options to interacting with others and spending time with friends and family. And while, as we discussed in our previous episode the continued distribution of a COVID-19 vaccine signals a hopeful end to our current situation of social distancing, there is little doubt that we will continue to be a global society that remains connected virtually, particularly in online social platforms.  But how much thought do we give to those we interact with? In particular, how much influence our virtual friends have on our own online behavior and decisions? Joining me for this episode is Xi Chen, an associate professor of marketing with the Rotterdam School of Management at Erasmus University. His study, “Efficient Estimation of Network Games of Incomplete Information: Application to Large Online Social Networks,”. selected for publication in the INFORMS journal Management Science, gains new insight into the impact of our online social interactions by studying online social games.

Épisode 475 : Hubspot et Talkwalker ont sorti un gros dossier de plus de 50 pages sur les tendances qui vont animer les réseaux sociaux en 2021.On a décidé de mettre le nez dedans et d’essayer de vous en sortir ce qui était le plus important. On vous donne bien sûr accès via ce lien à cette étudeCette étude revient d’abord sur l’année 2020 qui était extrêmement particulière sur les réseaux sociaux aussi dû à la pandémie du COVID-19.Cette pandémie a initié de nouvelles manières de communiquer, et surtout un niveau de transparence encore jamais atteint par les entreprises sur les réseaux sociaux.L’engagement des marquesC’est la tendance numéro un pour 2021 que met en avant ce rapport, les entreprises doivent s’engager pour faire la différence.Malgré les clichés qui peuvent exister sur les plus jeunes, les génération (comme les génération Z ou Alpha) et on l’avait déjà vu dans le passé dans Le Super Daily, ce sont des générations qui sont engagées autour de thématiques de fond et ce sont elles qui décident des tendances de demain.Ces jeunes génération n’hésitent pas à s’engager autour de sujets politiques, comme l’égalité, l’éducation ou encore la santé mentale….Ne pas négliger L’impact de la génération Alpha, la génération socialement responsableSelon cette étude et les clusters de conversations observés cette année, on observe une forte implication des jeunes générations sur les sujets sociaux.Pour rentrer dans ce moule, les entreprises devront aborder davantage de sujets de société comme la santé mentale, l’éducation, l’évolution des tendances alimentaires, l’inclusivité et la justice sociale, sans quoi elles pourraient perdre en utilité vis a vis de leurs consommateurs.Ces sujets sont indispensables aux yeux de cette génération Alpha mais aussi de la génération Z qui les précèdent. Cette génération qui a vu ses proches perdre leur emploi pendant le covid ou avoir eux-même des difficultés à trouver un premier emploi. Et il y a de fortes chances qu’ils haussent le ton sur ces sujets dans les années à venirCes audiences ont été mobilisées sur les réseaux par leurs youtubeurs préférés notamment avec le mouvement écolo / Eco responsable #onestprêts, on peut parler aussi de greta thumberg. Ils se sont aussi questionnés sur les gilets jaunes, intéressés au mouvement Adama Traoré et bien sûr ils avaient un carré noir au milieu de leur grille insta.Cependant attention, aller sur ce terrain implique de s’engager, les mots perdent de leur sens si la marque ne s’engage pas.Exemple de marque : dans la foulée du mouvement Black Lives Matter, Nike a directement embrayé sur sa campagne #UntilWeAllWin et n’hésite pas à se positionner sur les sujets de justice sociale.L’utilisateur au centreL’étude relève tout d’abord quelque chose de nouveau. Le remixing, c’est le fait que certaines personnes de votre audience récupère des contenus que vous avez généré pour les réutiliser à sa sauce. (Gif, Filtre en réalité virtuelle)C’est notamment une plate-forme comme TikTok qui a aussi lancé cette tendance. Puisque sur la plate-forme TikTok il y a quand même un principe de reproduire le contenu de quelqu’un d’autre.Il faut donc en tant que marque penser à mettre à disposition du contenu et encourager la créativité de ses utilisateurs.L’étude nous dit notamment : « les contenus générés par l’utilisateur suscite 28 % d’interactions supplémentaires par rapport au contenu de marque classique ».Il faut donc remettre l’utilisateur au centre de sa stratégie de communication.Mettre l’utilisateur au centre de sa communication c’est aussi accepter que le conversationnel sur les réseaux sociaux est indispensable.Vous le savez chez Supernatifs depuis le début on défend cette idée que sur les réseaux les consommateurs et les marques sont sur un pied d’égalité. Ce n’est plus une communication top Down mais une communication où on échange véritablement avec ses clients.Ainsi 2021 plus que jamais sera aussi l’année du conversationnel.Les memesCe contenu vieux comme le net, est toujours d’actualité et performe encore plus en 2020 et devrait continuer en 2021.55 % des 13 à 35 ans envoient des memes au moins une fois par semaine ! C’est juste énorme.Pas toujours facile d’intégrer ce format à sa communication de marque, mais il est possible de se servir des créations de ses utilisateurs et de les partager en Story ou en retweet sur Twitter.On a déjà parlé des memes iciLa nostalgieC’est peut-être lié à ce qu’on vit durant l’année 2020 et aux souvenirs qu’on a de l’année 2019 qui était meilleur puisque le Covid n’était pas encore arrivé, mais la nostalgie apparaît comme un thème dominant dans la communication d'aujourd’hui et de l’année prochaine.L’étude nous précise que l’utilisation de mots-clés liés à la nostalgie a doublé quasiment depuis la fin du confinement.On voit d’ailleurs un exemple assez criant avec Netflix qui se sert beaucoup de la nostalgie dans sa communication sur les réseaux sociaux.On retrouve parfois des créas avec du rétro Gaming ou même avec des choses évoquant un passé plus heureux.Le succès d’une série comme Stranger Things, qui respire à plein nez cette nostalgie des années 80 et séduit une large audience en est l’exemple parfait.C’est simple, la nostalgie a été mentionné 157 700 fois en lien avec la marque Netflix cette année.Le Social GamingC’est une tendance qui monte déjà depuis quelques temps, nous en avions déjà parlé avec Fred Cavazza dans un ancien épisode il y a plus d’un an.Le Social Gaming c’est exactement ce qu’on retrouve dans Fortnite, qui est à la base un jeu en ligne autour duquel se développe un nombre d’interactions sociales très important.Aujourd’hui, les plus jeunes qui jouent à Fortnite se retrouvent sur le jeu pour discuter, échanger, parfois sans même jouer.On sait aussi que Facebook horizon devrait arriver et déclencher de nouvelles choses, amener le Social Gaming dans une plus grande dimension encore.On en a déjà beaucoup parlé, mais des plate-formes comme Twitch prennent de plus en plus de place, notamment avec le confinement. Mais on voit aussi YouTube se positionner fortement sur le streaming de jeu vidéo, notamment pour toutes les interactions sociales qui peuvent exister autour.L’essor des fake newsLes fake news, on en entend parler tous les jours dans les actualités et elles ont même dépassé le stade des réseaux sociaux. Aujourd’hui, c’est d’ailleurs une date anniversaire puisqu’on est en pleine campagne présidentielle Américaine. Le monde traverse une période de précarité sociale et environnementale et il n’en faut pas plus à la désinformation pour s’installer.On a fait parlé de ce phénomène il y a quelques mois suite à une étude sur le sujet, et les résultats sont dingues.Des personnes ayant étées exposées longtemps à des fake news les ont jugé plus dignes d’être repartagées même en sachant pertinemment que l’information est fausse.Aujourd’hui, 28 % des adultes aux États-Unis sont convaincus qu’un vaccin potentiel contre la COVID-19 sera utilisé pour implanter des micro-puces aux citoyens. Exemple de marque : En décembre 2016, Vinci est victime d’une fausse information et son cours de bourse perd en quelques minutes près de 20 % de sa valeur. L’information, relayée sur les réseaux sociaux et par une agence de presse est fausse, mais fait partie d’une opération plus large allant même jusqu’à la publication d’un faux démenti.Le retour d’une communication pertinente à l’ancienneLes techniques de communication sont comme de bonnes recettes de cuisine, celles qui marchent reviennent au goût du jour et c’est ce que l’on voit aujourd’hui. Là où l’on était il y a quelques mois encore dans une évolution du web marketing vers du 100% digital, on a tendance aujourd’hui à rappliquer de bonnes vieilles méthodes et à utiliser de bons vieux outils.Et là, c’est avec grand plaisir que cette étude souligne fortement un regain d’intérêt pour les newsletters, le podcast et les SMS . Des formats éprouvés depuis un ou plusieurs dizaines d’années.En 2020, les podcasts natifs représentent 9,2 millions d’écoutes, les mentions de newsletters ont augmenté de 14% pendant le confinement. Et tiens toi bien : le retour de la VOIX ! Aujourd’hui 68% des personnes communiquent par SMS avec leur mobile, mais l’heure est à la recherche vocale, les tweets vocaux et même les appels..Contrairement à d’autres méthodes de communication, l’optimisation de l’expérience utilisateur ne vient pas de la façon dont le contenu est partagé, mais de sa qualité et son accessibilité.. . .Le Super Daily est le podcast quotidien sur les réseaux sociaux. Il est fabriqué avec une pluie d'amour par les équipes de Supernatifs.Nous sommes une agence social media basée à Lyon.

Aliens are among us. Well, the online multiplayer game Among Us is -- a murder mystery set in space, where the group must figure out who the alien imposter is (a variation of party games like Werewolf or Mafia) -- has seemingly suddenly become very popular. And not just because a major politician livestream-played it earlier this week, which is what makes this news.So on this episode of 16 Minutes on the News -- our show where we talk about what's in the headlines; tease apart what's hype/ what's real; and where we are on the long arc of innovation with related tech trends -- we cover:Who, how, and why now? Especially since the game, from indie game company InnerSloth, has been around since 2018 -- what if it's NOT just "the pandemic effect" (where people are seeking new ways to connect);What are the underlying trends involved -- from social to streaming -- but digging in on the twists, and nuances, of both;What are the implications for startups and big companies when it comes to the gaming market, beyond this game?All this and more, in less than 16 minutes, with a16z consumer team partner Jonathan Lai (formerly at Tencent games, Riot Games) in conversation with host Sonal Chokshi.headlines & sources for stats/quotes cited in this episode:"Everything to know about the game everyone is obsessing over", CNET [stats, roadmap]"Everyone's playing Among Us", New York Times [quote from Kotaku's Nathan Grayson]

Die Gamingbranche ist ein Hit-Business. Viele Anbieter buhlen um die Gunst der Nutzer. Im Goldrausch braucht man Schaufeln. Das zumindest könnte sich Andrin von Rechenberg, der Gründer von AirConsole aus Zürich, gedacht haben. Der ehemalige Google-Tech-Lead verfolgt mit AirConsole das Konzept einer virtuellen Spieleplattform für digitale Gesellschaftsspiele und ist damit äußerst erfolgreich: 4 Finanzierungsrunden und 7 Millionen User aus 190 Ländern sprechen eine eindeutige Sprache. Die Hintergründe der ungewöhnlichen Erfolgsgeschichte und eine dicke Prise unternehmerischen Knowhows gibt es in der neuen Podcastfolge. Sehr hörenswert.

On this episode of Dingman Bootstrapped, we interviewed UMD alumnus and serial entrepreneur, Paul Capriolo. Throughout his career, Paul founded and led a multitude of technology startups to successful acquisitions. In 2009, Paul noticed the explosive growth in the social gaming industry and the lack of a monetization method to capitalize on its user base. Paul started Social Growth Technologies to serve as a flexible platform that allows companies to monetize the social gaming market through in-game advertising. After seven years of growth and expansion, Paul recently secured an acquisition of Social Growth Technologies by Kiswe Mobile in 2017. In this episode, Paul details his initial motivations behind being an entrepreneur, the challenges he faced as a computer science major with no background in business and the process of growing a business in an emerging two-sided market.

Kyle Foley dropped by this week to talk about worship music, video games and millennials. Is video game culture really stopping this generation from getting jobs?  Terrible Opinions: Matthias: Worship music has crushed out actual church music. Old hymns set to new tunes are fine, but stop replacing them with wishy-washy emotional songs that have no theology. Jordan: The “relationship contract” explained in a New York Times column isn’t a bad idea. It’s better to err on the side of over-explaining your relationship than to just wing it and not be on the same page. Kyle: I hate Chipotle. How many video games is too many? Are millennial men really staying home and playing video games instead of getting jobs? Kyle, Jordan and Matthias talk about whether or not they’ve noticed this trend anecdotally and analyze how much video game time is too much. An avid gamer, Kyle mostly likes “social gaming,” video games that you’re playing with friends rather than on your own. Jordan compares video games to Netflix or another entertainment medium – it’s important to find balance and not invest too much of your time into it. To fire or not to fire … We wrap up with a debate about whether or not it’s damaging to society for people to be fired for participating in protests and having infuriating and offensive opinions.

Michael Fergusson has been a fighter pilot, a terraforming engineer, and a zombie hunter, and that was just this morning! He learned to touch type by hunting sharks, and has traveled the entire Oregon trail without getting scurvy. He also believes that playing is one of the most meaningful and productive things we can do. Michael is the CEO and Founder of Ayogo, a company that has won many awards for their use of social game play to help patients take control of their treatments. For this work, Michael was Ernst & Young's Social Entrepreneur of the Year, and was recently named one of the 100 most inspiring people in Life Sciences. Michael lives in Vancouver with his wonderful wife and four amazing children and is very happy to be alive at this particular time in history. In this interview, Michael provides an amazing look at the power of gaming and play in health with specific examples. He also discusses incremental progression, first steps, how to capture opportunities, and his own personal experiences moving into health.

So, our Moving Pixels podcast crew spent a couple of weeks playing in fits and starts (well, because that's the way you have to play social games) the beta version of Sid Meier's CivWorld.   The game seems an effort to capture a narrower audience of Facebook gamers, a more hardcore crowd, or possibly to introduce casual players to the Civilization universe. We consider the game's success at doing so and whether or not social games can legitimately appeal to a hardcore audience.

This week on the Waves of Tech: Reachout, Sony PS3, Social gaming and bubble bust. Show Notes 1. Reachout.com Sometimes we all get too involved with the latest tech gadget, tech news, and tech story and forget how beneficial the Internet actually is. As an example, go to Reachout.com. Reachout.com is an excellent source of information for teens and parents alike. If your teen struggles with depression, anxiety, or relationships, this site is for you and your teen. Reachout.com is backed and supported by experts in the field of behavioral studies, suicide, and psychiatry. 2. Sony PS3 Jailbreak We agree that the steps taken here by Sony are a tad-bit too far reaching. Sony is demanding to know the identity of anyone who saw the PS3 Jailbreak video on YouTube. This is a massive overreaction on the part of Sony and we discuss it. 3. Twitpic adds video Twitpic is going to be adding video sharing to its services now. Many of us use Twitpic and integrate it in our Twitter feeds and even Tumblr allows for audio features now. Mike and Dave say its an evolution of the social network while Steve proposes that it stretches the true and original purpose of Twitter. 4. Dave goes the way of social gaming Well, well, well. Dave finally caved in and joined a social gaming app. Of course, his love for sports is the only way in which social gaming was an option. Madden NFL Superstars is an app through Facebook that Dave has found to be quite the game. Question is...will Mikee jump on board soon? 5. 11-Year Anniversary of the DotCom bubble Remember these companies: pets.com & etoys Slightly busted but still around: Lycos, Alta Vista, Excite, Angel Fire Some are doing well: Amazon, EBay, WebMD, Stamps.com, Intuit, Priceline Super Bowl 34 featured 17 DotCom companies. How many in SB 45? 2011 potential IPOs:  Facebook, Linked-In, Zipcar, Kayak, Groupon, Zynga
