That is an interesting idea. I like to see what's going on nearby. I think you might want to geolocate based on the IP and filter only the stuff that is nearby me. ~90% of the people are only interested in the stuff that is happening nearby. For instance I only looked at the San Diego and Los Angeles stuff. Of course you should be able to browse all the items if you really wanted to. (A New Yorker who is visiting LA for instance might want to see NY stuff.) Another suggestion would be to offer up more than 5 items if you click on the subsection heading. The world does not NEED another twitter trending service but if you can do it better than the others and differentiate yourself enough you might be successful.
