1.1 Features
All the features per cycle are written down in this section.
# First cycle: Making it marketable
This cycle is all about getting SPT a more marketable face, with a new homepage containing all kinds of different information that can be changed easily and should be updated regularly.
The new frontpage
We need a new front page design. It needs to provide more room for information. We agreed on the following sections:
-
A rotating set of images
promoting certain aspects of participating in our research projects. -
Information about finished projects
promoting information on research projects that are finished. -
Some fun projects
that people can do for fun or pleasure, like a game, or an intelligence test. These tests should give you feedback right away. -
A subscription promo section
promoting the importance of subscription to the site. -
A list of current research
with open slots/space for subscription, providing a taste of what's inside. -
Facebook integration
through so called like-buttons that pop up wherever a research project is mentioned. -
Twitter integration
through automatic tweets whenever a research project is added to the site. -
Twitter integration (2)
through share buttons, allowing visitors to tweet the research projects to their friends.
The content on the homepage should change so often that about 80 percent of the visitors of SPT see different information each time they visit.
