GBOB
A social network for music lovers |
| |
GBOB International wanted to create an online community that would bring bands and fans into
direct contact with each other. Bands could leverage this community to promote their music and
upcoming shows. Fans, in turn, could use this platform to keep abreast of the goings-on of their
favorite bands and communicate directly with them as well as other fans around the globe. Based
on these requirements Icreon developed the GBOB social network for music lovers. Both bands
and fans can create and manage their profiles and interact with each other. GBOB has been
provided with administrative capabilities to manage the social network. |
