Hmmm, Windows or OS X? I haven't had any problems or other bug reports. If you don't mind emailing the details to jack@seatgeek.com, I'd be endlessly grateful.
Note to self: they got the data; they added a value; they presented it nicely and neatly. Good data mining business model.
Note to jack7890: as it comes to events, there are two factors that play a role here: time (you got that in the calendar view) and place (just partially in the "theatre view"). I have two ideas for improvement. How about showing events in the calendar and color code the distance (e.g. red close, blue far away)? Alternatively, you could show a 2D map, user in the center, events spread on the map and color code the time (e.g. red - soon, blue - far in the future). You can have user put zip code or get it by IP (might be not accurate for mobile devices, though).
Zeratul, great feedback, thanks. The proximity issue is critical and tricky, and we haven't solved it yet. Really like your suggestions; I'm going to play around with prototyping them.
This has happened to me twice in the last two days for some pretty amazing bands, by the time I found out tickets were gone, this would be pretty awesome.
would it be possible to warn non-US users that you service is limited to one single country?
you know where someone is connecting from, so the sign up form could be a little intelligent and say 'hey, this service is most likely useless for you'.
a .com address does not help the international audience to determine if your service is global or limited to a single country.
Some really good recommendations. Still, I wish I could change the maximum distance for shows away from me, or see how far away shows are on the main screen. I live in MA, and I'm seeing concerts in New Jersey.
