User Group Meetup 2024-Session 1 - What is FOMO Corner?

Video Transcription

Video Summary

In this session, the speaker introduces a new feature called the "FOMO Corner," designed to address several problems related to information dissemination for Oasis. The key issues highlighted include timing mismatches with newsletters, difficulties in locating information, repetitive queries from team members, and insufficient knowledge transfer with new team members.<br /><br />The FOMO Corner will serve as a centralized hub for updates, eliminating the need for newsletters and providing accessible information directly on users' dashboards. Users can interact with this feature by bookmarking, sharing, or rating the posts to give feedback on their relevance and usefulness. This interaction will help prioritize features based on user interest.<br /><br />Additionally, future plans might extend this concept to learner-facing pages, enabling organizations to disseminate critical updates or information more efficiently to their users. The feature is expected to roll out in October, with initial testing focusing on admin pages and potential expansion based on feedback and success.<br /><br />The session also addressed some technical difficulties faced during the demonstration and clarified the need for production testing due to real-world load requirements and external dependencies. The speaker concluded by encouraging feedback to refine and enhance the FOMO Corner’s functionality.
