2. INTRODUCTION
• GEEKVERSE IS A SOCIAL MEDIA HUB, PLANNED AND IMPROVISED UPON THE
MODELS OF VARIOUS MEDIA MODELS VIZ. TWITTER, PERISCOPE, INSTAGRAM.
• IT AIMS TO CREATE AN EXCLUSIVE INSULATED SOCIAL UNIVERSE FOR GEEKS
AND GEEK-ASPIRANTS, THAT IS THOSE WHO HAVE THE AFFINITY TOWARDS
SOME OR THE OTHER FICTIONAL UNIVERSE.
• IT PROVIDES CUSTOMISED AND UNIVERSE-SPECIFIC PERSONALISED FEEL FOR
INTERACTION.

3. THE NEED FOR GEEKVERSE
• GEEKS, AS IN REAL GEEKS ARE GENERALLY DIAGNOSED WITH SOCIAL CONSTRAINTS AND END UP
BEING PARIAHS AND INTROVERTS.
• THE LACK OF AVAILABILITY OF MENTAL RESONANCE CAN CAUSE SOCIAL STRESS, NERVOUSNESS
AND EVEN ACUTE DEPRESSION.
• COMMUNITIES AND GROUPS ON EXISTING SOCIAL MEDIA SERVE TO FURTHER
ISOLATE THEM FROM THE MASSES.
• HENCE, GEEKVERSE.

7. INNOVATION
• FIRSTLY, THE IDEA ITSELF IS NEW AND NICHE AND HAS NEVER BEEN ADDRESSED IN REGARD TO
FANTASY AFICIONADOS.
• SECONDLY, THE MODELS AND ARCHITECTURES OF QUICK-SOCIAL-MEDIA AND MICRO-BLOGGING
APPLICATIONS LIKE TWITTER ARE NOT AVAILABLE FOR GRAB ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD.
CONSIDERING ALL LEGALITIES, THE BEST AND MOST SUITABLE OF THOSE FEATURES WERE
INTEGRATED TO PROVIDE A HOMELY FEELING.
• GENRE SPECIFIC AND FANDOM-SPECIFIC PERSONALISATION HAS NEVER BEEN WITNESSED IN ANY
APP ACROSS THE WORLD.
• THE PLATFORM HAS THE ABILITY TO INSTIGATE PLETHORA OF CONSTRUCTIVE DISCUSSIONS,
CONTENT, SOCIAL MEETS AND BUSINESS.
• PREFEED FANTASY WORLDS MAKE IT VERY CONVENIENT AND ENTERTAINING.

• IF YOU REQUIRE SOME PSYCHOLOGICAL AND MENTAL SYNCHRONISATION.
