Hey guys! I really like this idea. Can you tell me a bit about what types of events you foresee people posting. For instance, would I post my dinner plans as an event?
So I foresee events going from a micro scale for private gatherings (ie: bbq's, bdays, game day viewings). Or they could rise in scale to things such as your first live gig as a band or a sporting tournament open to the public. There really is no size limitation.
However, dinner plans for two may not fall into what we had envisioned. But for example, if you plan on renting a place out for dinner to your closest friends/family, then that would make sense. Then you could set tags to the event to give people an idea of what type of dinner it'll be. This, along with tags on individuals, allows those considering the event to get an idea of what to expect in order to connect with people they relate to or connect with those who'll bring them out of their shell.
My ideal event would be a hamburger cook-off. Host one and I'll be the firs to attend.
Hey akyker20, most certainly! From one side it's a little hard to say how everyone will take it, I mean, anything you would want to turn into a social thing, could be an event. The boundary lies in how social someone wants to be!
However, I do think individuals will create all sorts of events, dinner would be really nice and a creative change of pace, but I think in the beginning more people will opt for having outdoor activities, simply because of initial trust issues. Sports gatherings (baseball this sunday, basketball tournament, etc), networking events of all types, hackathons, anything with existing friends, and the like.
Eventually, I think people will be more comfortable after experimenting and will host all types of events like, bbq for <fill in your niche>, dinner, social gatherings, watch the superbowl, etc.
