Every second of every day people are acting, sharing and collaborating on *things* resulting in the experience of being online as one that is less transactive and more interactive.  The new focus is moving beyond who-knows-who to understanding meaning derived by analyzing the transactions people have with social objects. A social object in this context can be virtually anyTHING that people are talking about or interacting with, such as:\n? Documents\n? Events\n? Tweets\n? Questions\n? People, places and things.\n   \nSocial Objects thrive in ego-centric communities where status and recognition are measured and context, tools and apps are present. Sites like Facebook, Quora, Pinterest and Tumblr are all communities where people do more than simply interact with social objects - they attach meaning, making them even more relevant to other people with shared interests. Understanding Social Objects and their role in social systems will help professionals build applications and networks that are deeply personal while maximizing community interaction, collaboration and sharing.
