New feature: Inviting Topic Experts on Tech in Asia

Hey TIA Community,

Starting today, you’ll be able to see our new Topic Experts features. You can see a live example here. We’ll explain it in detail below.

Invite Topic Experts

For every piece of content that’s posted on Tech in Asia, the author can’t claim to know it all. Topic Expert is a new feature for Tech in Asia’s internal staff and Power Users to invite experts and knowledgeable individuals to a particular topic.

What is a Topic Expert?

Topic Experts are folks who have deep knowledge about a particular topic who might be able to offer readers a deeper understanding about the topic that’s being discussed.

If you’re a Power User, you can invite Topic Experts in 3 simple steps:

1. Click on the “+” sign
2. Key in his or her details
3. Send the invite!

If the invitee accepts the invitation, his profile will be shown as a Topic Expert on the page. The Topic Expert will be notified whenever there are questions in our comments section.
