pointoo.de integrates more content
21 Nov. 2008 | Author: The local search platform pointoo.de (see our earlier post) has expanded its online offering. Users now can access many more medical and restaurant ratings.
This new injection of content is the result of cooperation with three new partners. The ratings for the medical branch are supplied by the patient-portal DocInsider; the feedback on hotels, restaurants or bars is delivered by Varta (a German hotel and restaurant guide) and by the lifestyle magazine Prinz.de.
“Through the cooperation with services such as DocInsider, we offer our users practical background information” explains Christian Strasheim, managing director of pointoo GmbH, in a press release. pointoo.de is not really a ratings platform in the standard sense (such as Qype, Dialo.de or KennstDuEinen?. It is rather more like a local search service, where registered users can mark their favorite locations, add comments and recommend to other users. Negative feedback is seldom found on this platform (by the nature of rating favorite locations). In order to enrich the users objective assessment of searched locations or service providers, Strasheim announced that further cooperative relationships are being planned for different areas of interest.

Meinestadt.de: Event calendar grows by leaps and bounds
As of recently, the city-portal meinestadt.de has provided its users with an event calendar, listing local parties, concerts and events in chosen locations (see our post). This feature was recently expanded.
As outlined by allesklar.com AG, the operators of meinestadt.de, in a press release at the end of September, the new cooperation with the German ticket-agent CTS Eventim was announced. This collaboration has beefed up the portal’s offering of its popular ‘top events’. Additionally, users can now book their tickets to many events through a link to eventim.de.
A week after the above announcement, the Events feature was further augmented, as listed in a press release, where three further partnerships were presented. The partners who join the providers of interesting events for the calendar are cultural information service kulturkurier.de, and the two party portals tilllate.com and nachtausgabe.de.
The new cooperation partners differ from each other, according to allesklar.com AG, particularly via their content orientation. kulturkurier.de specializes as the largest online-information service for top-level culture events in Germany. And the two party portals feature numerous complementary part events among their separate contents.
The event calendar of meinestadt.de is to be found under the menu item “Freizeit/Veranstaltungen“. One can also register additional events at no cost to the user.
