Summary/Abstract: This article studies the evolution from digital TV to social TV, being the TV that uses social networks as a mean to communicate with the audience. More precisely, we study the role of social TV as a social catalyst (Aldo Grasso, 2009) or of ceremony TV (Dayan Daniel 2000), as well as its capacity to establish a bidirectional communication channel.
