2019-07-09 Alex Schroeder : How To Start Social Networks

Darius Kazemi a écrit un guide :

Run your own social: “This document exists to lay out some general principles of running a small social network site that have worked for me. These principles are related to community building more than they are related to specific technologies. This is because the big problems with social network sites are not technical: the problems are social problems related to things like policy, values, and power.”

Une réaction ailleurs :

Build them small and they will stay: “I will be talking about my own experience in being part of and creating online communities and a lot of Darius’ thoughts on the matter closely reflect how I have grown to think about online communities and their dynamics.”

Technique

Wim Vanderbauwhede a écrit un guide :

First steps to running a web service on a Raspberry Pi: “to give you an overview of what you need to know if you want to use a Rapberry Pi as a server, for example to run Pleroma or Mastodon, or a simple web site or any other service.”

Mot-clé : Social Media

Social architecture is the conscious design of an environment that encourages a desired range of social behaviors leading towards some goal or set of goals. The environment social architecture influences may be social systems, or digital spaces such as media tools (sometimes synonymous with Web 2.0) and UX strategy. In building design it can refer to the architecture of social spaces such as bars and restaurant.[1]

In social systems, "social architects" seek to modify human behaviors (behavior change) through carefully designed programs or workshops that seek to involve the members of a population to improve, for example, the livability and safety or environmental impact of their own communities.

In digital spaces, "social architecture" is sometimes confused with "information architecture" or "interaction design".

The theory of social architecture can be applied to solve talent attraction and retention issues, while simultaneously combating a community's social issues. The Milwaukee-based firm, NEWaukee is the first social architecture firm in the United States.

Architecture of On-Line Communities

In September 2011 Pieter Hintjens presented "Social Architecture 101" at Mix-IT in Lyon. Hintjens defined the term like this: "Social Architecture by analogy with conventional architecture, is the process, and the product, of planning, designing, and growing an online community."[2]

Hintjens' 2016 book, "Social Architecture"[3] provides a theoretical framework and a set of tools for building online communities, including a contribution process[4] for open source software communities. The book refers to the ZeroMQ community as an example built using these tools and processes.

Social architecture on team-building

Social Architecture is different from interaction design and information architecture. Rather, it can be illustrated with the combination of two. Specifically, the idea is to use structural (e.g. software, organizational rule) tools to design a socio-technical infrastructure for participants to behave in the wanted direction of the designer. It can be used as a conceptual framework for directing building a real-world community of which member communication is mostly taking off online. Social architecture aims for creating an effective infrastructure for non-face-to-face communication and management.

As more and more across-devices team-building platform (such as Slack Basecamp\Architecture Social\Teambition\Tower.im) has been used, they provide some empirically-designed communication pattern for new joined teams whose major communications taking off online.

The popular team-building platforms have some common features that their designers see as providing more efficient online communications. Mostly the team leader (or any member) will create a team on the platform with customizable name and invite other team members to join this team. The created team will be able to use designed features from the platform. They include:

Newsfeed: Similar to Facebook's news feed, it is a semi-public feed where all joined team members can post or update their thoughts and get immediate or delayed feedback from other team members.

Discussion Board: Team members can create threads related to topics for all members to participate in discussing.

File Sharing: Team member can upload files from their multi-platform devices and cloud storage.

Chatroom and Private chat: They provide real-time chat among all team members or between specific team members.

Task-distribution and checklist: Team members can(be) distribute tasks and set deadlines.

Calendar: A shared calendar with deadlines and important dates.
