Bwin to Implement Social Networking Tool into Online Casino
One of the top priorities at Bwin is to try and make gamblers feel as though they were in an actual Vegas casino. So with the addition of their latest tool, “Shoutbox”, players will be able to interact as though they were sitting next to each other at a real brick and mortar casino in Sin City.
As Twitter and Facebook become the most popular websites around, Bwin saw this as an opportunity to expand their online casino to include social networking tools such as their latest named Shoutbox.
Shoutbox is a social networking tool designed for online casino players to comment on bets, as well as challenge their Facebook and Twitter friends to online casino games at Bwin. This idea is seen as an investment in the future of their business in the online gaming world. Developers also see this as an opportunity to bring in players that are accustomed to playing only at brick and mortar casinos, such as in Vegas.
Bwin employs over 600 IT specialists with over half of those dedicated to software development only. This set-up allows for more time dedicated strictly to software development instead of maintaining the infrastructure.
Bwin plans to develop more social networking features for the online casino in the future such as instant messaging, buddy lists and online presence alerts. Bwin boasts over 20 Million players across 22 countries and has been in the gaming business for over 12 years.
