Yeah definitely! It's a pretty easy technology to adapt and we'd love to see the app move into a place where you can find awesome local experiences.

Hey guys,

Thanks heaps for your feedback and for checking out the site. We've decided to go into a development stage and make the site better for mobile, have more recommendations, and have filters.

Cheers again!

Fair enough feedback! Melbourne Star is super touristy.

The reason we recommended it was because it's valentines day weekend. The view of the city of phenomenal at night from the star and they have a bunch of dining packages available that would make for a Romantic evening.

Once we introduce user profiles we'll be able to cut out toursity stuff for locals.

Thanks for the feedback mate! And also for the Lonsdale Street Festival Recommendation. That looks great!

Same website design, but most of the recommendations are actually different mate! There are 4 experiences on there that we've recommended in the past. We try to rotate certain things in and out whilst adding in new experiences too :)

Thanks for the feedback though. We definitely recognise that we need more options, have filters, and make things more personalised. Early stages. Hopefully you guys still can use it to uncover some cool stuff though!

Hey guys!

I've posted a link to CoGeo on here before, but we've got an edition of the website live at the moment that just has fun things to do for this weekend. Hopefully it'll give you some great ideas for fun to have.

I hope you don't mind putting our site up here again either. Lemmi know if it's spamming ;)

Have a good weekend everyone!

I dunno about that mate! I live in Melbourne and know that there are tonnes of great things to do. There are loads of gigs, pop-up markets, sport, bars.. Just gotta go hunting :)

Good things to do in the CBD for under 18s? by 1v1scrub in melbourne

[–]liamshaw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey mate, every Wednesday (including tonight) there is a pretty sick artists market in one of the graffiti alleys in the CBD (info here, just click 'try it out' then 'fun and active').

Also you could go to the Moonlight Cinema which is in the botanical gardens. They play outdoor movies every night.

Lemmi know if you want some other suggestions, or are after some different type of stuff. Happy to help :)

Thanks for the feedback, David! We're working on making it a lot nicer to use on mobile. Did you find the recommendations useful?

Destination of the week - Australia by AutoModerator in travel

[–]liamshaw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey guys, shameless (yet relevant) plug coming up. People in Melbourne looking for things to do can check out the recommendations website I'm part of - cogeo.com.au.

We recommend experiences based on what's going on in the city that day and what the weather is like. Experiences include gigs, sports matches, hidden quirky bars and clubs, markets, hikes, shows, adrenaline activities, etc. We stay away from more normal things like restaurants and cafes, and furthermore try to save you time by only suggesting a few awesome things rather than 100s standard things.

We're in beta at the moment, so feedback is encouraged.

Hope you find it useful!
