Multitude

What is Multitude?

Multitude is a large screen engagement platform designed specifically for events and conferences. During events, many delegates share their thoughts and comments online in real-time via Twitter and hashtags.

Multitude lets you display these tweets on any number of large screens from projections to LCD TVs and on mobile screens from the iPad to iPhones with perfect synchrony.

Multitude serves as an active timeline of conversations and photos shared by the delegates during an event. Multitude can also be used to share data in events that take place across multiple venues at the same time.

Multitude also comes with multiple plugins including a Clock & Agenda, Live Trending Words, Real-time Leaderboard, Announcement Panel, SMS Integration, and can be completely customized to fit the look and feed of your event or sponsoring brands.

What is a Hashtag?

Hashtags are ways people group conversations on Twitter. With millions of tweets being sent every hour, following conversations around an event is best done by focusing on hashtags.

Delegates will often include hashtags into their conversations so others know which event their comments are related to. Event organisers are increasingly promoting the use of hashtags in their event publicity material.

Hashtags look like: #EventName

Examples:

“I’m attending #SXSW, who’s going to be there?”

“The speaker on stage now is making a good point about social media. #adtech”

“I hope Adam wins! #AmericanIdol”

Why use Twitter Hashtags for events?

Example: Multitude with background floaters

Example: Multitude with Real-time Trending Words

Example: Multitude with sponsor logo

Example: Multitude on iPhone
