StackShare

Since the evolution of the Internet, online communities and forums are playing a major p part in information sharing. I signed up for a similar community back in 2008 namely Orkut. We used to share scraps all day. At that time, the only communication we have was through either Orkut or text messaging.

Nobody wanted to share their number with us. and we were not getting any scraps from random girls as we imagined. Even though the popularity of Orkut increased subsequently. However, there was nothing like real-time messaging available in any of the websites. Then comes Facebook.

Facebook's entrance in the market was big. but WHY?

Facebook managed to provide everything Orkut had. And to Top it off, A real Time Messaging Platform "messenger" as we know it today. that was the doom of Orkut.

There are many online communities for Sports, LGBTQ Community, Gaming Community and many more. Communities can see a major downfall if they didn't accept the change. They need to integrate the messaging application into their websites or application. That's what we do at Channelize.io. Have a look and decide for yourself.

Be it a large enterprise or a startup business, you need real-time messaging. we can help you with that.

Needs adviceonAndroid OSAndroid OSAndroid StudioAndroid Studio

I would like to build a simple Android OS app using Android Studio (absolute beginner other than Pascal) for my school that lists its upcoming events (e.g. Graduation along with a description and date and time) that can be refreshed by the user. I would like to know how do I get around creating this app and more importantly, how to host a service on my old PC that I can easily input new events and have the app 'grab' these new events off of it. I will greatly appreciate any help/resources you guys can share.
