We are writing our fourth book on Customer Experience<\/a> due out in spring 2010, published by Palgrave McMillan. The current working title is Customer Experience: Emerging trends. One of the trends we are looking at is Social media or \u2018Social Experience\u2019 as we would prefer to call it. For us Customers are having a \u2019social experience\u2019, through the use of social media\u2026Social media is the tool, social experience is the output of using the tool.<\/p>\n

So what is a social experience? In its widest context a social experience is visiting a pub\/bar with your friends. It could be attending a conference or seminar and interacting with people in a business setting. We know that social interaction is important and people are tribal and need social connections. (Maslow). The huge growth in social media is tapping into that basic human need. In the social media, online space how would a social experience be defined? Here is our draft definition we are looking to crowd source.<\/p>\n

Draft Digital Social Experience definition:<\/strong>
\nA technology enabled social interaction helps to meet psychological needs for; safety, love\/belonging, esteem and self actualization, (Maslow), and the resultant emotions evoked. Technology enables a wider, faster, more frequent interaction, thus creating in a digital social experience.<\/em><\/p>\n

Is this right? Can it be improved?<\/strong>
\nWe would welcome your thoughts and observations.
