where camp 2008 – Maps + Community
What tools are people using to find out about events based on location?
upcoming.yahoo.net is one big tool that everyone in this room seems to use. It’s ‘I am Watching’ list versus ‘I am attending’ list is very interesting in what information about the event, and its interestingness to you, that you are conveying to others looking at the even and your friends who have your list of events in their list.
Andrew Turner is advertising Mapufacture and its location based event aggregator.
One thing thats interesting plazes is that you can look into the past and future and actually track your movements over time. Where was person X last month, where will they be next week etc etc.
Seems like there are many many tools to do this one thing. Question in my mind is how to get an aggregated service working around all this location based community event data being captured on the web?
I think its time to check out one of the other sessions…
