This further expands Endemol Deutschland GmbH’s cooperation with Web 2.0 portals.
Alongside the ongoing eighth season of Big Brother, Endemol provides direct access to the virtual 3D shared apartment through an official Big Brother website (de.sevenload .com/bigbrother). Fans can meet there and communicate directly with like-minded people using the distinctive telephone function or chat. “We have the ideal technology for this cooperation. Big Brother fans can enter the sMeet worlds through the website they already know, directly in their browser and without additional software. Here they will find new ways to contact other fans and their stars,” says Sebastian Funke, Head of Marketing and Co-Founder of sMeet. “As avatars, visitors can move around the virtual Big Brother world or explore the other rooms. sMeet connects the virtual world with a real telephone conversation. It is an entirely new kind of fan gathering.”
This cooperation not only expands sMeet’s offering, but also increasingly establishes it as the central 3D world for real communication and entertainment in the German-speaking market. The flexible integration options for its 3D worlds make sMeet an ideal platform for media and internet partners that want to offer their users an easy-to-use 3D world without a download.
sMeet.de provides individually designed virtual worlds where users can meet friends, get to know new people and communicate. As in real life, users can also move from group to group and join different conversations. To participate actively in a conversation, users simply enter their telephone number and the system establishes the connection automatically.
