Hey, I'm Patrick - founder and dev of etrigg.com, a fast growing, lean and pretty cool event discovery start-up. It helps people to find events nearby pretty quick on any device w/ a browser (NO downloads, NO tons of ads, NO search, NO BS). Feel free to try it out and post feedback, thx :)

How do you monetise the site? Anyway awesome job, I just tried in Spain and it workd quite well!

  Thanks! There's a little bit of adsense at the moment (trying to keep it "non-intrusive"; covering infrastructure costs) but for long-term it's planned to have event promoters on board paying for "promoting" or bulk importing their happenings (e.g. seminar providers, trade fairs etc.)...

Looks cool, clean and clear. Would be even better if there was an API and command line interface...

looks nice! The only thing I noticed is that when I use geolocation there isnt a way to set a radius I am interested in - so I am seeing everything only in my suburb but not my metro area.

  Thanks, yes there's a feature to set the radius but that's by registration only at the moment. Just needs email + PW (ya, sry for that but it's safe!) and then you can also subscribe to searches/locations/events or post events on your own (pretty simple).

It looks great.Simple and to the point. Feature suggestion (or feature creep): I think as one other poster mentioned, for people that are in a suburban setting, it might be a neat idea to concatenate search locations: my university, my local city, a local town that i am willing to drive to, and my current position could all be contributors to one "list of interest".

This is great! Would love to use this instead of being forced to log into facebook and search local events. Also love the simple UI. Very Craigslisty. No noise.

Need a date filter

Looks good, but it would be nice to be able to select a date range (i.e. be able to search an upcoming weekend) and it doesn't currently seem to be able to go past the current page? Also, the location selection could be a bit more intuitive, I'd maybe make the location name in 'See what's happening in _____' a link to change your location. But overall pretty good, I'll be taking a look at it in the next few weeks :)

I hope its not too much to ask for apple-touch-icon for the site, as it looks like a great useful site that will be on my iPhone's home screen. Thank you
