Are you a design and art addict? Then CARGO is made for you!
This platform was publicly launched in 2009, and is constantly into a
developing process by both members and developers.
Many talented artists, designers and filmmakers are using this platform; to
this extend, Cargo will soon set up an “educational community-building tool in
collaboration with several of the world’s most distinguished art and
architecture schools.”
Explore their design templates here (and see welcome page next slide)
Personal feeling: artistic platform

4. Always wanted to write your own paper/article and spread your
idea worldwide? Easier, STORIFY is here to help!
You can create your own stories about any topic, and collect your
sources by dragging and dropping the main status that will support
your ideas: seems really easy!
5. Want to meet people and participate into stimulating
conversations? You only have to choose a date, book
your seat and invite people, in order to share your
thoughts over dinner in the city you live!
This is what ASSIMBLI organizes!
ART SPOTTER is an Iphone application that has all the benefit
of “around me”: you can find anything from galleries, public
art, street art, pop up shops, studios, student show, etc. BUT
the added value is that when you walk and discover street art
that is not yet recorded in the application, you can add it!
6. Are you a start-up entrepreneur? You travel for business and you can’t
afford expensive hotel rooms?
Couch surfing for entrepreneurs will then help you finding other start-up
entrepreneurs facing the same problem, creating a community that will
help you saving money when travelling for business!

Planning to stay in Marseille during your summer holidays?
Sleep at and discover AU VIEUX PANIER!
This “hotel-house” counts with 6 rooms, each decorated by a
different artist; every 6 months, the artists and then the whole
environment changes!

WS
SPOTTED BY LOCALS has launched
its Iphone application!
Creation of a mobile website (not an application) called
MOBI BOOKER which is a multilingual plug in aiming at
creating and managing professional “reservation-ready”
mobile websites for your hotel.
Advantage: no commission fees
BUT: it represents a new channel management
programme that could be a problem for hotels
8. 2 important things to remember as hoteliers:
oBy experience, we can now say that pictures and visuals are the most
appealing materials that guests and fans want to see on your Facebook
timeline! Pictures from the hotel, from the art galleries in your local area,
from other worldwide destinations, from the staff and the daily life in your
structure!
oRegarding organic search and SEO, it is important to bear in mind that a
lot of work is needed to be visible on the web; you have to find your own
combination of search terms, further to having searched where you are
and who you want to compete with!
