Check-Out is a mobile app and website that aims to solve the problem of discovering events by displaying all relevant event information in one place visually, rather than using lists. It will source event data from Facebook, Yelp, and ticketing sites and display it on maps according to location, distance, and which friends are attending. This provides a more interactive and easier to understand experience for users to find events while on the go compared to existing websites that are stuck displaying information in lists. A small focused team and partnerships with events companies would be needed to build and promote the product.
Check - Out PPT
- 1. Check - Out
- 2. Idea in one line Check Out is the fun and very easy way to find/locate and explore what events you would like or may want to attend based on location, time, your personal interest and your social network.
- 3. Detailed Explanation • Too many services/websites available to find out events to attend and things you can do. • But the most general and common way of showing data is lists: – Not the best way to show info on mobile – Not very informative – Not very interactive • It’s very difficult to find events when you are on move and using your mobile. • It’s even more difficult when you are not in your country and don't know local services.
- 4. Eventbrite.com uses lists to display their data – a really old way which is not interactive.
- 5. TicketMaster.com – stuck with lists as well.
- 6. BookMyShow.com – poor site to book tickets from, again stuck with lists.
- 7. Websites have improved their design over time, but that is not enough.
- 8. The way of showing data in the form of lists is not good enough to display a lot of useful information because there is a possibility that data would be cluttered.
- 9. There is more data than the user cares about like location and distance, type of event, friends going etc.
- 10. The information is so scattered that users hate to visit multiple websites trying to solve the same problem.
- 11. Users would like to see data represented visually as that would be easier to comprehend and remember.
