Hello from Tbilisi! My name is Taras, I am a consultant based in Georgia. I have been working here on and off for 2 years, and one thing that I found annoying is that it’s extremely difficult to enjoy smoke free atmosphere in public places in Tbilisi, especially in Restaurants and Cafes. For this reason, me and other friends who like to enjoy pleasant atmosphere without detriment to our health, are launching a public platform to promote local business that cater to non-smokers.
The beta version will launch about next week. The project is called “Smoke-free Tbilisi”. We are still debating the domain name, please provide your input. Options are
b. sf-tbilisi.org
d. smokefreetbilisi.ge
The preference is given to .org domain since it’s cheaper than .ge.
The development plan is:
beta: Simple listing of places by town region with a short map picture
v. 1: OpenStreet Map based database system with geolocation
v. 2: Android based app with geolocation The project will run on OSS platform, of course, so anyone can implement it in their own city later on
The demographic: Visitors and citizens of Tbilisi who want to enjoy their time in a clean air environment.
We are also looking for Georgian contributors for the project and any funding/project help that may be available, although at the moment we have all the resources we need to go live with the beta version.
If anyone from Tbilisi wants to get in touch regarding this project my number is +995-579-10-81-79 Cheers, Taras P.S. I anyone needs technical assistance on their projects, feel free to get in touch.
