eFans.com Launches Version 2.0 Global Social Networking for All Sports
LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- eFans announced the launch of its re-designed and unique approach to
satisfying the diverse interests of sports enthusiasts around the world.
The new eFans, a revolutionary social network for sports fans, is
positioned to become the website of choice for virtually anyone who has
an interest in athletics. It will combine all the features of sports and
education sites for any notable sport.
eFans Founder and CEO Stephan Maric states, “The
new version of eFans will include many new exciting features that will
change the way sports fans connect on the Internet. The new release will
have new modules that unite the fans that have the same favorite athlete
or team. We will launch new functionality in phases so users can grow
the site to be what they want it to be.”
For the Beijing Olympics eFans will host a special page devoted to the
world’s best sporting events. The summer games
will be covered by David Wallenchinsky, author of a series of “The
Complete Book of the Olympics”, who will be
contributing to eFans live from Beijing.
The site is based on networks of fans, teams and athletes featuring over
1,000 profile pages of the world’s greatest
legends. Users can join networks as high profile as Tiger Woods, Boston
Celtics, Maria Sharapova, and FC Barcelona, or as local as their college
league. “The best part is that anyone can add
their content, similar to wiki, making it a highly personalized yet
high-profile interaction,” states Maric.
The next phase of eFans will launch in October 2008 and will include
chat, marketplace, polls and fantasy leagues. It will serve as the
sports hub for seasoned Facebook, MySpace, YouTube and Wiki users, all
in one place.
eFans is a social networking site devoted to everything sports. Based on
community building technology it serves as a hub for communication
between fans, athletes and teams globally. This unique network provides
a single site where a user can follow multiple sports and interact with
education or blogs for each. The eFans global network opens channels for
cross continent exchange and mutual understanding patterned after the
Olympic movement’s spirit of friendship,
solidarity and sense of fair play.
