Oistr.com is a Rich Internet Application (RIA) mashup combining social networking and
mapping. The main focus of the site is facilitating travel with revenue streams from
booking commissions and ad sales. We use a system of pins placed on a map where
each pin presents a summary of the location, including rich multimedia content and
reviews. Our cutting-edge proprietary system encourages users to submit and share
videos, photos, and Virtual Reality Panoramas (VRs). The future of marketing online is
the conversation between users and businesses; Oistr.com is designed to facilitate this
conversation.
Our site aggregates content from many sources including reviews and real-world
experiences from its users. They can create trips and share travel experiences with
others. They can also use the site to book a complete travel itinerary visually, including
transport, entertainment, and accommodation, all using our special interface. Users are
also encouraged in a variety of ways to invite their friends and acquaintances to get
involved, stimulating viral growth.
We provide the tools to research and book a trip, and the ability for users to share their
experiences with friends. This maximizes the opportunity for the site to be seen and to
acquire new users. This viral growth strategy combined with overall “stickiness” is our
key marketing advantage over the older and more traditional travel sites.
