Web 2.0 & Social Media: What Is It?
The term Web 2.0 is associated with web applications that facilitate participatory information sharing, interoperability, user-centered design, and collaboration on the World Wide Web.

Examples of Web 2.0 include social networking sites, blogs, wikis, video sharing sites, hosted services Source: Wikipedia

Challenges concerning Mobile Travel Information Systems
• Availability of high quality, real-time public transport data
• Creation of inter-regional data-pools
Data • Standardized interfaces to facilitate
data exchange between different systems
• Reasonably priced map data and PoI-information
• Operation can be very cost-intensive (data volume, communication etc.) --> has to be beared by the TPO
Costs and Operation • Ongoing updating and maintenance of
content • Costs for marketing • Compatability with multitude of devices • Flate rates for mobile data leads to
increased customer acceptance

Conclusion I
In 2020 the net generation and digital natives will represent approx. 50% of potential customers of public transport.
Web 2.0 & social media are communication channels to reach these customers.
Interaction and relationship marketing will have an even greater relevance in the future. Social media connects people, messages and facilitates interaction.
The principle of a centralized “transmitter” is outdated. Anyone can be an author. Consumers become “prosumers”!
The relevance of content is crucial to the success: provide convenience, entertainment & benefit!
![Page 38: Using Social Networks for Public Transportation · Web 2.0 & Social Media: What Is It?

Conclusion II
Don‘t reject complexity but integrate it – prosumers are welcome!
It‘s a change in communication with your customers – be prepared (have a communication strategy)!
It needs time and budget!
But: Only to rely on the Internet, is the wrong way – it needs cross-media approaches.
Success of mobile applications in public transport depends substantially on the user experience and customer benefit.
Successful public transport apps provide the customer with intelligent options and added value (context-sensitive, personalized, intermodal)
