Zoodles of improvements…

December 14, 2007

We’re listening… We’ve heard over and over that when people search locally they are often asking themselves one of the following questions:

  • What should we do Friday night? {time-based query}

  • My brother and his family are coming to visit January 15-18, how are we going to entertain the kids? {time and “mood” based}

  • I live in Davis Square, what is there to do there? {location based}

  • I’ve heard that Back Bay is THE place where all the hip people hang out, where should we go? {interest based}

We are hoping that our new guided nav on the browse and recommendations pages have gotten us one step closer to making this easier for you (see it in action). We still have a lot of work to do, but this is a decent start. On our roadmap we have plans to tweak events so they are more appropriately tagged, add a zip code and radius search, reorganize our Geographic Region section so you don’t have to drill down through layers to get to neighborhoods, and to reorganize Activity Types to get you to what you are looking for more efficiently (we have a lot of events there that no one is seeing!) And that’s just the short list.

This is where you come in, we need your help.  What questions are you asking yourself when you are looking for stuff to do? What are you specifically looking for on Zync? Are you finding the places and activities that are right for you? We want to know what is working for you and what isn’t. One of the best parts of being an early adopter of Zync is that you get to help us shape what the product will become.
