Show HN: Get a ride with friends (and their friends) to the same party/event

4 points by jkkorn ↗ HN
www.levar.me I built an Android app that shows you which Facebook friends (and their friends) are going to the same party/concert/conference as you. It then let's you chat to the other person so you can figure if you're splitting a cab or a ride.

The app was launched a week ago, and it's still very alpha (read: buggy). That said the app relies on partnerships with clubs for promotion and revenue.

I was wondering if the HN community has experience with 'B2C2B' apps.

I'd love some honest, sincere feedback this community is well known for.

Very clever idea! So can this be used for any Facebook event (ie. free for anyone) or is there a cost to attach this to an event?

Yep! It connects to the user's facebook account so it is, like you said, free for anyone.
