New Social Network eegoes Launches Services: What Matters to You?
BOSTON, Massachusetts, September 14, 2010/PRNewswire/ -- With many social media users complaining of information overload and a
lack of control over their growing connections, a new era of social network
is launched today with the arrival of eegoes. Now officially out of private
invitation-only beta, this new social networking tool aims to put the basics
back into social, organize and streamline your content around things that
interest you, so you can find, according to their catchy slogan, 'what
matters to you'.
American-Swiss start-up eegoes is now publicly available, having been
previously available by private invitation only, although it remains in beta.
This new social network, is the brainchild of Guillaume Molter and Al Zane,
IT enthusiasts with a vision to simplify the user experience, reduce clutter
and arrange the streams of content and information available daily to social
media users.
A series of private investors and companies provided the initial seed
funding for the company, which has been working hard preparing the platform
for official launch.
eegoes simplifies social with a 'back to basics' networking and sharing
concept. Users create a personal profile to post links, photos, videos and
events.
One of the great characteristics of eegoes is the ability to add tags or
keywords, so that every piece of content is searchable, making it easy for
users to locate content of potential interest to them. Even profiles can be
tagged, meaning you can search people according to interests, undoubtedly a
huge selling point for meeting other like-minded people. The service also
recommends users to you based on common interests or proximity to each other.
When questioned about the use of this functionality, Guillaume Molter ,
CEO of eegoes, explains, "The purpose of eegoes is not primarily to share
personal information or photos as is common on other networks. Although this
is still possible as private messaging and profiles are available for those
who wish to participate in a more personal way, this is not our major focus."
"We developed eegoes to allow people to improve the relevancy of their
networks as they grow, by reducing the overload of less interesting content ,
helping them to find others who share their passions and interests and
allowing them to get their message out to a wider global audience. So unless
you specifically request it, your profile and posts are seen by everyone, so
they can be searched and found by others who agree with your opinion or wish
to challenge it. For us, eegoes is as much about meeting new people as it is
about sharing and discovering great content which matters to you."
Their delightful little animated introduction video is also currently
going viral, cleverly tapping into the frustration users feel with daily
clutter from things like Farmville updates and fake profiles.
The launch is also providing eegoes members with additional excitement as
there are great prizes on offer, including a prize draw for an Apple iPad.
Users simply sign up and make a post in the dedicated group to enter. The
most voted for or 'liked' posts are also in with a chance of winning iTunes
and Amazon gift vouchers, thereby encouraging new users to try the service.
About eegoes: eegoes.com is a new generation of social networking site,
whose aim is to provide a user-friendly and innovative platform for social
interaction. Users can enjoy discussions around their areas of interest and
exchange links, videos, photos and more. eegoes is structured around
