Independent Development Studio Launches New Website with Innovative Approach to Social Networking Through Events

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
West New York, New Jersey, United States of America (Free-Press-Release.com) September 27, 2010 -- September 16, 2010

ReadyFace Studios, LLC, a technology start-up specializing in developing custom websites and applications for personal and business use, unveiled TickTocker.com today. TickTocker is a free social networking and scheduling tool dedicated to connecting people through their shared interest in events. The site allows users to create real-time countdowns to any event (personal and/or public) and share them with as many or as few people as they want. Once a “Tock” is generated, the site counts down to exactly when it’s taking place.

The goal of TickTocker is to put time into relative terms. As opposed to standard calendars that only show you the date and time of an event, TickTocker users can see exactly how much time they have to prepare for an event—a particularly useful tool when purchasing tickets to shows, planning trips, buying gifts and tracking your next paycheck.

USES

Personal
Casual users can use TickTocker as a way to keep track of personal events, birthdays, holidays, social engagements and share important dates with others. They can also use it to discover local events, track film, gaming, music and television premieres/releases and find users with similar interests and connect to them by following their Tocks, commenting on their events and corresponding via direct messages.

Business

Businesses can use TickTocker as a way to promote upcoming events, releases, product launches and premieres. By posting countdowns to key dates, they can spread the word to a wider audience and develop a larger following as well as keep their existing fanbase constantly in the know. It is also a useful tool in coordinating projects, setting deadlines and connecting teams, especially when members work remotely.
