The thing-user is a thing that uses the service provided by other things. The thing-user centric communication serves a thing-user to convey intended meanings by mutually understood language and to discover a peer thing-user or thing-user group who understands its communicative intention and aids the thing-user to achieve a goal autonomously. In the networks for the thing-user centric communication, the thing-user establishes a social community autonomously to share their experiences and to coordinate their capabilities for achieving a goal. This paper defines the thing-user and the thing-user social community, and proposes an architectural design of the thing-user social community in the future networks for the thing-user centric communication.
