Not sure why there's so much complaining going on here. This is brilliant. You're Doing It Right. Yes, it's too simple. But you're erring on the right side

Yes, it's too simple. But you're erring on the right side of complexity. Well done. Be careful to not lose that vision as you iterate on this idea.
Some ideas for features:
1. Let me specify the time/date/location/description of the event when I create it. Then let users view a map, download an ics, add it to their yahoo/google calendar, etc.
2. It's clean and simple, but it kind of looks like ass. Get a designer to give it some visual love.
3. Let me enter a list of email addresses, and email them. Or let me enter a list of phone numbers, and you send SMSes.
4. Post to twitter/facebook/etc. It would be cool to be able to broadcast an event to all my friends. But if you're going to let it post to twitter, you'll need to make those urls much shorter.
- kirubakaran 18y agoGood points. Thanks.
- nihilocrat 18y agoThe first half of #1 was my first complaint. Okay, what the hell am I agreeing to show up for? Oh, I don't really know. Someone can tell me that information, but I can't really refer back to it. The second half might be erring on the side of complex because it is trying to target certain technology, rather than staying "pure" and being just about spreading info on a web interface. If I wanted to keep it simple, I would just have a description where a date and time could be included in plain text.
- unalone 18y agoNot sure why there's so much complaining going on here It's more like nitpicking. We like the general idea, and it would be ill of us not to critique it and make it better.
