<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="../../images/blog/se-screenshot.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="../../images/blog/se-screenshot-small.jpg" /></a></p> <div class="post"> <p style="text-align: center;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: 12px; font-family: verdana,geneva;">I am delighted to point you to a website I created for a friend, <a href="http://www.spiritualevents.net/" target="_blank">www.spiritualevents.net</a>. The site provides a wonderful opportunity for people all over the world to promote their events - for free. While the site focuses on spiritual events - who would have thought that ;-) - yoga, qi gong, tai chi, healing and similar teachers/groups are also strongly encouraged to use the site as a platform to promote their events. </span></p> <p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: 12px; font-family: verdana,geneva;"><br /></span></p> <p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: 12px; font-family: verdana,geneva;">On SpiritualEvents.net people can</span></p> <ul style="text-align: left;"> <li><span style="font-size: 12px; font-family: verdana,geneva;">Promote events (one-off and ongoing, in two separate sections)</span></li> <li><span style="font-size: 12px; font-family: verdana,geneva;">Do extensive searches on the spiritual events database, by location, teacher/group, etc.</span></li> <li><span style="font-size: 12px; font-family: verdana,geneva;">Write articles about spiritual topics</span></li> <li><span style="font-size: 12px; font-family: verdana,geneva;">Write short news snippets about their current offers or activities</span></li> <li><span style="font-size: 12px; font-family: verdana,geneva;">Browse profiles of registered spiritual teachers and groups</span></li> <li><span style="font-size: 12px; font-family: verdana,geneva;">Receive event notifications</span></li> <li><span style="font-size: 12px; font-family: verdana,geneva;">Receive a regular newsletter</span></li> </ul> <p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: 12px; font-family: verdana,geneva;">This functionality is great for a start I think, more features like embedded multimedia and live webcast facilities are in the planning stage. </span></p> <p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: 12px; font-family: verdana,geneva;"><br /></span></p> <p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: 12px; font-family: verdana,geneva;">However, tons of features are worthless if they are not used, so please promote the site where ever you can so that it can truly flower and serve its purpose.</span></p> <p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: 12px; font-family: verdana,geneva;"><br /></span></p> <p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: 12px; font-family: verdana,geneva;">For technically interested people: the site is based on ruby on rails. Highlights are the</span></p> <ul style="text-align: left;"> <li><span style="font-size: 12px; font-family: verdana,geneva;">Ajax search with convenient auto complete select boxes, a custom made combination of a standard autocomplete textfield with a drop down menu for choosing from the available options. I will describe these soon on railstoolkit.com a site dedicated on sharing rails&nbsp; specific stuff (when its done ;-)) and the<br /></span></li> <li><span style="font-size: 12px; font-family: verdana,geneva;">Rich text content editing using tiny MCE.</span></li> </ul> <p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: 12px; font-family: verdana,geneva;">Enough talk, just check out <a href="http://www.spiritualevents.net/" target="_blank">www.spiritualevents.net</a> and tell all your friends...</span></p> </div> <p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.nicoritsche.com/images/blog/se-screenshot.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.nicoritsche.com/images/blog/se-screenshot-small.jpg" /></a></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Mit Freude weise ich Sie auf eine Webseite hin die ich f&uuml;r einen Freund erstellt habe, <a href="http://www.spiritualevents.net" target="_blank">www.spiritualevents.net</a>. Die Seite bietet eine wunderbare Gelegenheit f&uuml;r Menschen auf der ganzen Welt auf ihre Events hinzuweisen - umsonst. Im Fokus der Seite sind spirituelle Events - wer h&auml;tte das gedacht ;-) - doch auch Yoga-, Qi Gong-, Tai Chi- und &auml;hnliche Lehrer/Gruppen werden unbedingt dazu ermutigt die Seite zu nutzen, um f&uuml;r ihre Events zu werben. </p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Auf SpiritualEvents.net k&ouml;nnen Sie</p> <ul> <li>Events promoten (sowohl "einmalige" Events als auch regelm&auml;&szlig;ige Events, in zwei separaten Bereichen)</li> <li>Ausgedehnte Suchanfragen an die Event Datenbank stellen, dabei kann nach Land, Stadt, Lehrer, Gruppe, etc. gefiltert werden<br /></li> <li>Artikel zu spirituellen Themen schreiben<br /></li> <li>Kurze Neuigkeiten &uuml;ber ihre aktuellen Angebote oder Aktivit&auml;ten schreiben</li> <li>Profile von registrierten spirituellen Lehrern und Gruppen anschauen</li> <li>Event Benachrichtigungen per Email erhalten<br /></li> <li>Einen regelm&auml;&szlig;igen Newsletter abonnieren</li> </ul> <p>Ich denke diese Funktionalit&auml;t ist fantastisch f&uuml;r den Anfang, viele weitere Features sind in Planung (wie z.B. eingebettete Videos, Audio, Live Webcasts). </p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Tonnenweise Features sind nat&uuml;rlich vollkommen nutzlos wenn keiner sie benutzt. Machen Sie also bitte Werbung f&uuml;r die Seite bei all Ihren Freunden, damit sie aufbl&uuml;hen und ihrem Zweck dienen kann. </p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Genug geredet: probieren sie einfach <a href="http://www.spiritualevents.net" target="_blank">www.spiritualevents.net</a> aus und empfehlen sie die Seite weiter...</p> web 2008-07-31T03:42:32Z 3 spiritualeventsnet spiritualeventsnet false SpiritualEvents.net 2008-08-01T04:46:47Z
