Even Kristen is speechless at this bad-ass DEC! |
Happy Friday from the thismoment product team! This was a huge week for product and feature releases, but a couple really stand apart from the pack.
Breaking Records
A certain vampire-themed blockbuster is in theaters now, and as ticket sales peak, so does traffic to our YouTube and Timeline Twilight sites. 12,000 requests per minute at last count! A special shout out to my man BobbyS, Adam, Leslie, and rest of the thismoment dev team for adding 200 servers in a flash and keeping everything as cool as an undead lothario. Great work team and huge props to my homies Jack, Ramzy, Tim, and the whole Summit Entertainment Crew!
Google+ Integrations
Not as sexy as teenage bloodsuckers to be sure, but certainly *hot* off our presses: We’re super excited to announce a number of new ways for brands and users to leverage Google+ within DEC and the DEC CMS 3.0.
How about a hot cup of Google+ auth to go along with your engaging conversation? |
Google+ in Social Conversation Module
As of this week, brands can now pull their Google+ posts into the Social Conversation Module just as they do their official Facebook and Twitter feeds. But it doesn’t stop there! Users can also join the conversation and both comment and post directly into the feed using their Google+ authentication. What’s your excuse now?
Google+ in UGC
Yeah, yeah, you already know we’re the undisputed champions of managing and processing user generated content (UGC) on the internet, but things just got a whole lot more interesting. Now our submission flow lets users authenticate with Google+ to upload photos, videos, or text in any UGC campaign powered by thismoment. We’ve already processed over 200,000 UGC submissions this year, and we’re confident that this new authentication will encourage the 45,000,000 Google+ users to engage and share!
Go ahead and hold your breath. Our next update will be here before you know it!
