This morney we spliced the rss feed and created an upcomming rss feed. So now your able to keep informed from both sides of the event world via rss. Meaning you can see what event is coming up today or tomorrow. listing from today onward (the future), or you can see what event was recently added which could not be coming up till the next year or so. There are also numerous new feeds through out the site. User based feeds where your able to see what the user has been up to, example “cyberpunk has added new photos etc”, recent blog feeds which shows all the recent blog entries from all users.

Keep an eye out for more feeds as the development continues. Enjoy the new feature

Regards

Its been awhile since our last upgrade to our 1.5 platform. Well SURPRISE (DIGITAL CONFETTI EVERYWHERE). Yesterday marked the day of the launch of events.in876.com version 2.0. We launched the product at the emerge e-commerce expo (click for details) and here for photos.

The revamped site features a weighty list of new features all adding great value for you, whether your a promoter or a party go-er or a business event shark, whatever you are there’s a category there for you with features to make it seem as if that calendar was made specifically for your type of event interests. An email was sent to notify all registered users of the upgrades and how they should recover their passwords.

It only gets better from here on out. For the long time users thanks for the support over the past year for the newcomers welcome to events.in876.com.

This week we started making the rounds in the local press with a honorable mention in a weekly technology article in the Sunday Gleaner dated November 18, 2007 Click to Read

Because of the Gleaner Article we indirectly made Tech Jamaica 

On Monday November 19, 2007  top tech blog for the Caribbean  Silicon Caribe Posted an interview we did.

Thanks to all involved in our appearance in the local media this week, bloggers keep blogging and don’t forget tell a friend.

The in876 Brand is steadily gaining strength, we have a new brand building campaign in the works and at the center of the transformation is a brand spanking new logo.

Developed by Powell Interactive the logo boasts elements we see and love from “web2.0 movement”. Strong colors and smooth gradients. We currently have two styles one for events.in876.com and hotspots.in876.com.

The masthead updates should be online within a week or so.

Recently I bought a new HTC smart phone, armed with gprs & wifi internet access the next logical step for the in876 network was to go mobile.

This process will be a long and hard one for some site, but for others we managed to complete the task in no time. The url’s for mobile access are:

http://m.in876.com && http://mobile.in876.com

there you will find links to:

• Movie Listings
• Upcoming Events
•  Day’s Weather
• Hotspots (Completely mobile)
• This Blog
• News and Sports Headlines (RSS Feed From Gleaner)

Hotspots.in876.com is the first of the network’s sites to have a complete mobile interface available, we are still populating the database with all the hottest locations in Jamaica (876) so soon you do not need to be in front of your PC to find a top restaurant or bar to chill out.

As always spread the word about this new feature, because you know the developers here are always one step ahead of the rest.

Today we begin a renewed push to establish our network as the top network for all things related to Jamaica (876). We kick things off with some improvements and bug fixes to our flagship product Events.in876.com.

Improvements:

• Promotional Video Support - We have created a special Youtube group for members to share videos they plan on using to promote their events. Each event is only allowed one (1) video and it can be uploaded to any flash video hosting service (Google Video, Metacafe, iFilm, Youtube) to better serve the community we would prefer you use Youtube as we can then group all videos for better organization. While browsing members will notice the TV icon beside the name of an event, clicking it will start playing the video in our lightbox.
• 
• Event Comments - As a part of our community initiative we have included the ability to comment on events, share your thoughts about events you are planning to attend or events you know are always good, tell other members your views. ps. if you get an error saying comment too short just hit send again
  
• Planning to attend - We have included another feature for members to share with the community their intentions to attend an event. So now friends can know if any of their friends plan on attending the same event they are. It just increases the fun.

As apart of Operation Condor we will be starting an aggressive PR campaign for those who love what we are doing a link to us would be nice. For the bloggers out there feel free to mention us and help spread the word.

If anyone wants to link to any of the in876 network websites your free to do so. Accompanying that gesture is pretty button images to use for your linkification (made up word). view the link to us page
