Athens PopFest 2008 Site Goes Live |
After much planning, scheming, and coding, the Athens PopFest 2008 website is live to the world. Now in its fifth year, the Athens PopFest has proven to be both a facilitator of and catalyst for a renewed international community spirit among discerning rock and pop fans. Boxkite Media, through its outlets Athens Exchange and Overheard in Athens, has been a sponsor of the festival for four years. This year we built them a shiny new website, including a version of the Spool designed to manage information for the festival including calendars, band profiles, mailing lists, ticket sales, and discussion forums. This doesn't make us rock stars, but it sure does feel like it. After all, we're with the band.
Overheard in Athens
You never know who might be listening. Combining social content, geographical communities, and user input features like voting, submission, and ranking, Overheard in Athens has become a local favorite for students at the University of Georgia.
