A year ago, when we issued the second redesign of gr2me, our goal was to emphasize our gr2me Productions, short videos by Greek directors, and our stories about Travel, Food & Drinks, People and History. This decision, which had to do with featuring only original material, impacted videos by prestigious organizations such as the National Geographic, the Metropolitan Museum and the Boston Museum that we were using with their permission. We took them down temporarily, but we may feature them again soon.
The last few months we worked on the third redesign of gr2me. This time our goal was to increase the site’s speed and make its diverse content easier to find. We are unveiling the new gr2me design tomorrow. Among the redesigned sections are our Listings. Although the Film Festivals section remains relatively unchanged, we reengineered the sections for Restaurants and Museums and Hotels to allow locating them through Google Maps. If you do not find right away your favorite restaurant, museum or hotel, don’t worry; we will continue to add new content monthly. We are also re-introducing Music Videos that include extensive information about the recording artists. This is an opportunity for gr2me to promote music talent that not too many people outside Greece are familiar with.
Some of you may already seen on social media our short, catchy reels based on stories that we publish. They register tens of thousands of views monthly, which shows that visitors appreciate fresh perspectives about Greece. You can watch a couple of the most popular ones here:
