研究基礎【最終発表1】(4/4) SNSについて比較してみた



    【M.Y. メモ】
    • 前と比べてかなりよくなっていた。
    • 「比較の基準を作る」のに苦労したようだが、一番身近なMixiと比較するという形でまとめることができた。
    • 話し方も、中間発表よりも聞きやすかったと思う。
    • もう一歩ふみこんでもらいたいと思う点が何カ所かあったが、そのためには、しばらくの間実際に使ってみるとか、特定のユーザたちに注目して観察するなどのリサーチが必要だろう。
    • 顔文字は不要。
    • 「コミュニティ機能」など、名称のみを出すとやや説明不足感が出る。簡単な説明の語句を加えるようにしたい。
    • Mixi
      • ユーザ数の変化:口頭だけ→グラフの方が分かりやすい 
      • ボイスとは:150文字のつぶやき(Twitterと連携)
      • 他社のゲームとも連携
      • コミュニティ (数)
      • 問題点:詐欺/プロフィール詐称/複数のアカウント所持:問題点がよく分からない。
      • 問題点(システム):私の奴隷ちゃん(システムの問題?)/サンシャイン牧場:情報漏洩/新機能の相次ぐ休止
    • Twitter 
      • Twitterは「情報交換」vs. Mixi は「友達作り」→この比較はいい線いっていると思う。もう一歩踏み込みたい。
      • 気軽なことしか書かない→というわけでもない。が、フォローしたりされたりが気楽にできるという点は当たっている。
      • グラフでの mixiとtwitter のユーザー比較:このグラフから言うと、年代別のユーザ数の違いはあまりないように見える。パーセンテージではなく、実数で示した方が違いがはっきり見えたのでは?
    • モバゲー
      • 会員数2167万人(国内1位を争う) 
      • 携帯からPCへ 
      • モバ友/クリエイター:趣味が同じ/リアルでの友人ではないかも→この辺が、Mixiとの違いではないのだろうか?Twitter とは共通しているように思える。もう一歩踏み込んでみたい。
      • 年齢別比較:年齢層ごとの比率がはっきり違っている(モバゲーは十代が多い)のが分かる。男女差はどうなのだろう?
    • まとめ: SNSごとに特徴がある。使い分けて、様々な情報の入手に活用したい。
