Yet Another Step Closer To World Domination

Taking the lessons we’ve learned from adding the Portland and Denver area’s, we’ve decided to do it again: Welcome Boston, Phoenix, and San Diego! (Feeling jealous of Boston right now. The Breeders?!?) We’re currently working our asses off to make sure that we have the best coverage possible for those areas; so if you know of venues that could use a little love, we implore you to let us know.

But that’s not all!

In the last few weeks, we’ve added a couple of new features and refined the way our recommendations work:

News Feed

News FeedIf you’ve checked out home page of the site, you’ll notice that the “Recent Comments” section has been replaced with the “News Feed.” Now you can not only see the comments and reviews people have about events, but also see what events people have created and saved (but only with user permission, of course). And if you want to catch up with what people have been doing in the area, we’ve got a page exclusively for that.

JavaScript Calendar

http://blog.culturemob.com/wp-content/uploads/jscalendar.gifBloggers! Add your events to your blog! I’ve been waiting for this feature for a while. With this feature, you can create a calendar for artists, venues, and personal events and control the display for images, descriptions, showtimes, and the location; just click on the “Get Widget” link on these pages. For the fancy web-devs out there, you can even customize your CSS to have full stylistic control over the content. This is great for artists and venues who are looking for an easy way to automatically post their events to their calendar. Check out an example of my personal events in the sidebar of my personal blog.

Stay tuned! More coming cities and features coming VERY soon.
