Eyje.com Idea
In discussing the prejudices of people and their lack of understanding against each other, we decided to put the emphasis on the possibility of turning this case into an enjoyable advantage. (2003) (aft,mot)
It is Eyje that provides authors with different point of views across the planet in an up-to-date and categorized manner. We call this the ultimate “Comment Search Engine”.
Besides, the Eyje authors are also free to communicate their feelings with each other on this “Social Network”.
“Aft” has builded up many designs to develop its “comment search engine” idea. The “Category Bar” displaying the comments regarding countries, age, occupation and gender of the comment owners, and the “Eyjemeter” showing the overall statistics on that particular topics, are the features developed during this phase.
Later on, eyje.com domain was registered for this project in December, 2006. “arpeggio” has coded the project during this while. Finally, eyje.com relaunhed with its new interface, elevated the features and enhanced its functionality in October 1, 2007.
What is eyje?
Eyje.com is basically a social comment search engine. Think of an instrument that easily brings up a worldwide list of opinions on different criteria. Say, “Nicolas Sarkozy”, “Brad Pitt”, “Atheism” or something else, and get the categorized comments about it. Or, you can select a choice in the categorization tab, that only dispays homogenious results at a time, like comments by country, age, gender, and etc. Similarly, you can also see only the direction of the comments as positive, negative or the balanced comments about a topic.
Briefly, you can analyse the mainstream of the tendencies of comments on a country base and easily examine the international mindset of people. For example, a German, before visiting Moscow, can browse the comments of other Germans’ before booking their flights. Or a band can catch on the reflections of its new launched album on eyje.com by categorizing the comments by countries. Similarly, one can observe the attitude of the Middle Eastern citizen’s approach towards Europe, just like the Far Eastern’s on America.
So the atribute of the comments is also getting as much valuable as its diversity. This is why eyje.com only welcomes the authors by invitation. The point here is to create a rich and “moderate” friendly environment rather than creating an elite order.
Meanwhile, it is also a social network where the authors can connect with each other about the topics and their comments. The authors can personalize their profiles, add thir own avatars, create their friend lists and send messages to other authors. The igniting factor that fosters the communication between the authors is the diversity of eyje.com.
