Nearly a year ago, Lost Remote was the first site to focus exclusively on the emerging social TV space. Few people had heard of “social TV” back then, but now the TV industry is embracing social media, and venture capitalists are investing millions in social TV startups. Media analyst Jack Myers predicts social TV will be an $8-12 billion business in 2020.
Today Lost Remote is keeping pace with the social TV revolution with more original reporting, exclusive interviews, guest posts, analysis and data. You may have noticed, we’ve rolled out a new design with several new sections:
Charts: We’ve added to our daily Trendrr data of the most social TV shows with charts from SocialGuide and the weekly most-checked-in TV shows from GetGlue. A one-stop source of social TV data and ratings.
Leaderboard: We’ve expanded our leaderboard of the top Twitter accounts and Facebook pages in TV with the top TV brands on Google+. Coming soon: the most subscribed TV journalists on Facebook.
App reviews: A carved-out section of second-screen and social guide app reviews.
Research: The latest research about social TV, tablets and connected TVs.
Events: A calendar of upcoming conferences in social TV, digital media and the future of television. (Please let us know if we’ve missed an event!)
And if you’re too busy to visit the site, you can get all our coverage in a daily email (sign up). We’re growing quickly, and thank you for your support! Please don’t hesitate to email us (tips[at]lostremote.com) or send us a tweet with your feedback. And stay tuned for more to come…
