Web 2.0 Expo San Francisco 2009
YouCity Inc, a global leader in developing premium quality large scale 3D city map and highly interactive and user-friendly consumer-based virtual reality applications, today announced the company will be launching the open beta of its local-community focused social network website built on an immersive 3D virtual reality platform at the Web 2.0 Expo San Francisco, March 31 – April 3, 2009. YouCity.com helps users connect with local people sharing the same interests, and discover the city hotspots and exciting local events through the eyes of their friends or people they trust on a fun 3D city map.
“Our visually stunning 3D city map is nothing like you have seen before. Our goal is to develop a highly interactive and engaging information platform based on our 3D city map to help users connect with local friends and places or exciting events happening around them,” said Bin Li, COO and co-founder of YouCity. “Our focus is on people, and persistent user identity built through difference activities users have on our site, so that you know each user as ”a person” before you make a decision on whether to trust his/her reviews or not, rather than some random guys who just show up and post a review on a website. We all have heard the stories of false negative reviews posted by the hired reviewers on sites like Yelp because they can hide behind the animosity. Well, it will be difficult to do that on our site because of our persistent user identity.”
“We are excited to launch various new features for our site this week,” added by Mr. Li. “one of them is the supper easy-to-use embeddable map feature that allows users to add cool YouCity 3D maps to their blog or website by just copying and pasting a snippet of HTML. You will find this feature very useful in many ways…”
