Advanced Rss Website
This project is about a website that will display related info about given geographical places around the globe.
Info displayed are written above.
Website has two steps for a visitor. First one is the launch(frontpage), where visitor will just see a centered search box(google style), with some details next to it for using it, below this box he can choose for details he wants to show/search so he will see only the ones he likes, he can click more than one choise or just click all with a single choise. Most popular choises should be displayed in typed language after the search bar.
Step two is the results which will be loaded in ajax style below, while search bar will go on the top of the website to release room for the results.
Ideal is to have the search engine suggest related words for the query as google does.
– keywords can be entered in any language
– results for a keyword will displayed based on language that was given in the query and then if no results available english language will take over
Design is very important so visitor doesnt have to scroll down a lot, should be adsense ready for monetization.
MAIN CONTENT IF RELATED CONTENT IS AVAILABLE
– map(google maps or bing)
– info about that place(wikipedia)
– main attractions(taken from wikipedia or any other related engine)
– news taken from rss sources(maybe google)
– hotel with affiliate links for booking(many websites offering such services give a related api)
– pics from Panoramio
– video from youtube
ADDITIONAL CONTENT. IF QUERY ITS ABOUT GREECE OR BRASIL OR ATHENS OR NEW YORK ITS EASY TO ASSUME THAT RELATED DETALS WILL BE DISPLAYED, IF QUERY IS ABOUT A SMALL VILLAGE OR NOT SO POPULAR PLACE FROM A COUNTRY THEN ADITIONAL DETAILS WILL FEATURE INFO ABOUT THE COUNTRY THIS PLACE BELONGS TO AND THE CAPITAL CITY OF THAT COUNTRY
– demographics(taken from wolframalpha.com) and country flag
– time, temperature, weather, drive, currency along with conversion tool
– main attractions
– news taken from rss sources(maybe google)
– hotel with affiliate links for booking(many websites offering such services give a related api)
– pics from Panoramio
– popular websites from that country chosen from alexa.com based on rank(top 10)
EVERY INPUT STRING MUST BE ENTERED THROUGH A LANGUAGE FILE(LIKE JOOMLA DOES) SO I CAN LATER TRANSLATE THEM FROM ENGLISH TO MY LANGUAGE BECAUSE THE WEBSITE IS LOCATED IN GREECE.
A mockup is needed in order to get more serious with any of you.
To get a better idea of what I m looking for check out this website which has most but not all of the features:
