For the first time, Comic Con attendees could record a timeline of the panels they chose to go to during their time there. While the feature requires Bluetooth, it's a wonderful tool to showcase a fan's adventure on all social media networks.

With Bluetooth, Livestory kept track of the sights around the individual like a detailed map. This produced a dynamic walk-through for entranced newbies or Comic Con regulars. Though the booths and attractions shift from year to year, a 2017 ticket holder would have distinctive memories for this particular year on their Facebook timeline.

Livestory also served as an information guide of sorts for the duration of the convention. Though some panels opted not to participate, the ones that did permitted their content to be shared on Livestory. Any friends of guests who were not in attendance could peep at the latest news for movies or comics because their companion was in the heart of the Con. This turned out to be the best kind of social media share especially for friends who couldn't go or who might want to go someday. Should NYCC employ Livestory again in 2018, the support of every panel would be a tremendous asset in an already enjoyable resource.

The inclusion of the worthwhile Livestory should last just as long as fans' festive NYCC memories.
