Mobile Event Site for Eo Nerve

Details and requirements

The project was about developing and updating EO NERVE’s mobile website - m.eonerve.com to facilitate easier access to the details pertaining to the conference.

During the EO conference in 2011, we created the mobile event site with functionalities like Schedule, Speakers, After Hours, Hotels, NYC Links and Feedback. However for the latest Annual Conference of EO, to be held on 19th April, 2012, the site needed new functionalities.

Each member represents at least one multi-million dollar business.

Speakers:

The site will redirect to a page sporting the information about various speakers of the event to be held between19^thto 21^st April, 2012. When a user will click on "Speakers" tab, a detail page opens up listing all the speakers. The "read more" link below each speaker name takes to another detail page about individual speaker; while the "feedback" button redirects to the feedback page. This section is also managed by the admin of the site and he/she can add, edit, and delete speakers or information about speakers listed on the site.

Committee:

Committee has the details about the people holding the prestigious positions in the organization. Apart from the information about the chairs they hold, the email IDs of committee members as well as the countries they represent has also been given.

Local:

The event is going to happen at the Loews Hotel in downtown Atlanta, and the local tab takes the users to the detail page of venue. There is a URL given clicking upon which a map will pop up helping the users with route to the venue. Additional help topics like "Walking Excursions", "Cab Excursions", Driving Excursions", "Other Activities at the Zoo" etc. are also made available on this section.

Update Status:

Users would be able update their Twitter and Facebook status messages through the site. They need to login with their Facebook or Twitter IDs to access this facility. When a user updates a status from m.eonerve.com, a link of the event also gets posted with the status.
