My Underground Journey / Social Platform Mapping potential areas

Here is my scenario of my journey on the underground, the reason I took image of my journey,  it was to help collect relevant information in order to  answer certain question on how the modern and continuous commuters spends their time surrounded by complete strangers.








My research lead me to believe that commuters have one objective, which is to travel, as simple A-B journey, which did not show any social communication. i.e playing on technology, (i-pads, i-touches, laptop and smart phones) people also where entertained by the local news paper i.e Metro or evening standard.

Here is my own diagram of what areas i will look into, which will help me build a foundation on how to approach my audience. This will help build the 'Social Platform'. The key ingredient will be to get complete strangers to communicate with one another on the underground. This could also be included on other means of transport i.e trams, busses, buss stops etc.
