On
November 23 Toozla, the developer of GPS mobile audio guides has
finished tests of a new version of itsapplication for
iOS and Android. Now Toozla users are able to make their own extended
geotagged notes: photostogether
with audio. Likewise with audio notes, photos are being
encored to the places, where they were taken, and any Toozla user,
passing by this place, receive audio-story with
photo. Mobile guides, which were self-generated by
Toozla users, now appeared to be much more informative. Therefore a
new essence of information has been created, located somewhere
between video and photos (between
YouTube and Instagram) - photo-audio touristic journal. Using
integration of new functions,Toozla plans to give a new push for the
development of its infosphere. Now all the information in Toozla can
be divided into three big blocks: professional guides; guides, based
on global info sources, like Wikipedia, Wikimapia, 2GIS, Google
Places; and user-generated content.
How
declared Yuriy Mustafin, Toozla CTO, “We work hard on the
possibility of using Toozla service for the development of personal
guides. Some time ago our content-partners have received possibility
to work with improved web-tool for the development of professional
guides. But we haven’t offered any tools for our end users,
excepting geotagged audio-notes. User-generated content can be as
interesting, as professional guides, because it’s being generated
exactly at the moment, when the user is really interested and
impressed by something, so this stories have a great difference -
non-trivial narration and lively emotions.
Having analyzed these stories we’ve understood, that they definatly
have a lack of photos. Now the user make a photo of
interesting object and add audio description to it. We lay account
with it function to increase seriously the quality of our content and
the interest of end users.”
