Deep Twitter

We like to think that moreconference has deep integration with Twitter. 

Here’s how:

1. Sign in: Delegates can register (and then sign in) with their Twitter account - or with Facebook, LinkedIn, Google or Yahoo. That means they don’t need to remember any moreconference password.

2. Profile: Delegates can add their Twitter account to their profile - so other delegates can easily follow them. They can also add their LinkedIn account and any website too.

3. Tweet to the board: If a delegate has added their Twitter account to their profile then any tweet they do which includes the hashtag #moreconf appears on the moreconference message board. It’s an easy way for delegates to talk to their followers and the moreconference network at the same time.

And after our most recent software update…

4. Special Twitter account: Delegates can now get updates about the moreconference network through Twitter. In the management screen, you can authenticate a Twitter account - and we will send tweets through this account when new delegates join or there are new posts on the discussion board. The tweets are anonymous and do not reveal the content of any posts, so the privacy of the network is respected. No more than two tweets are sent per day. You can either use an existing Twitter account or start a new Twitter account for this purpose.

Neat!

What do you think of this poll?

New feature alert! Now you can create polls on the discussion board.

It’s a great way to canvas opinions and start discussions around a particular topic.

If you a conference organiser, just click ‘create a poll’ on the discussion board and you’ll have your survey up and running in no time.

Check it out by starting a free demo.

The recipe for a Brilliant Meeting:
All good recipes require the ingredients to be correctly procured and prepared, yet it is only when they are blended with the necessary knowledge and skills of the chef that the finished dish is a culinary success. In exactly the same way, participation, preparation and leadership are the ingredients that need combining in the right quantities to result in a Brilliant Meeting.

Using moreconference for new sponsor deals

Here are 3 ideas for using moreconference when negotiating your next sponsorship deal:

1. Use the full space at the top and side of the page either for one exclusive sponsor or for listing several sponsors (red space below).

2. Give sponsors access to the network and encourage them to engage with delegates on the discussion board. Tip: they can make a special offer which will be limited just to delegates since the network is private.

3. If the sponsor joins moreconference then they can access the social network profiles that delegates add to their profiles (and we also provide these to the organiser as part of the data export at the end of the event).

Christmas treats

Yesterday we released a couple of pre-Christmas goodies.

Event organisers can now access real-time stats on how their moreconference network is performing (in the Management tab):

Also we’ve given delegates the ability to control whether other delegates can send them private messages. If you want to turn it off, just check the box in your profile.

Happy Holidays!
