ABSTRACT
The purpose of this thesis was to introduce a new form of designing principles to web designing. There are new and more fluid designing methods, which are replacing old, cumbersome methods.
Objective was not to dismiss proven practices in the web designing field, but to complement the existing ones with theories of persuasive design and responsive web design. Those two new theories were added to guidelines of user interface to create a new social media application. Using the persuasive design as the stepping stone to create new web applications will prove useful in reducing marketing costs and bring more dedicated users. Responsive web design provides means to create cross platform applications, and using these two theories while creating a new application should prove fruitful.
Socially driven event calendar is build using guidelines for user interface, theories about persuasive designs and made available with cross platform devices with responsive web designing. That resulted into some interesting yet predicted outcomes.
Main goal of this thesis was to introduce new forms of designing principles and try to give out practical examples how it could be done. The problem with persuasive design is that it is still in theory mostly and with responsive web designing has the opposite problem of being foremost practical.
