INVESTOR RELATIONS
IC Places is a
network of city based websites connecting businesses with
their patrons by providing up to the minute information.
IC Places is different from other social networking and
reference sites because each of our city sites is a virtual
portal to the entire community. Every unique aspect of the
individual citys social, business, and cultural life is
available right at the city's homepage. IC Places provides
the entire community with a place to talk, do business and
get connected. Businesses are given amazing tools to tell
their story in the best way possible and browsers get
unfettered access to people and businesses in each city.
IC Places provides each and every diverse aspect of a city
right on the citys homepage. Part of what makes city life
interesting is experiencing the diverse cultures that they
are comprised of. Most social networking sites are built for
one demographic, i.e. college kids, retirees, or perhaps
business owners. With IC Places, people that live in a city
have a place to go to be amongst their peers and explore the
rest of the city at the same time just like in real life. IC
Places provides users with the ability to conduct business
with a local company and plan their weekend social
activities all at the same time with the help of an easy to
use, user-friendly interface.
www.icPlaces.com/Orlando is the perfect example of how IC
Places can revolutionize working and playing in a city. Each
Section really has its own demographic. Everyone from music
lovers to sports fans and academics have all the information
they need to go about their lives in Orlando. It is a
virtual example of our real world and as people grow they
will find other sections in their city to grow into. As
people grow and change they can still use their IC Places
city site but will find other sections that may interest
them more. Many people in the real world happily live their
entire life in a single city. They create roots. With most
social network sites there becomes a point where you will
feel out of place. With IC Places sites people can create
their roots and feel an immediate and unique connection that
is individually suited to the personal tastes and business
needs all within their city.
To build on the sense of community, each section of each
city site has its own online TV Channel that encourages the
locals to become Citizen Journalists. As an example the
Orlando Night Life TV Channel is just for nightlife in
that city. The worldwide army of Citizen Journalist is
estimated to be at 136.5 million according to a 2007 article
by eMarketer, and is expected to grow to 237.7 million by
2011. Each channel allows visitors to upload their own
videos from a Cell phone or online. These video connections
from Citizen Journalists create a community atmosphere
that ensures an ever increasing supply of cutting edge,
city-specific content. All videos are approved by editors
before they are aired.
