I came to a conclusion based on a little thought and the wikipedia example you gave. The first thing that comes to my mind is the search engine, and I think the best example of this is Google. Google is a search engine that gives people a lot of information quickly and this is an example of social innovation in my opinion.

On a day at the end of March every year, from 8:30 to 9:30 p.m. in people’s local time, the earth turns dark for just one hour. This is to mark Earth Hour, which is a campaign that asks people and companies around the world to turn off all their non-essential electric lights at the same time as a symbol of support for actions to tackle climate change. However, taking part isn’t just about saving electricity during that hour – it is symbolic of being careful with what we use. lots of important buildings around the world take part in the event, including Big Ben, Harrods and the Gherkin in London, the Eiffel Tower, Sydney Opera House and the Bangkok Grand Palace. Earth Hour is organised by the World Wildlife Fund and members of the public are also encouraged to take part in their homes.
