Show HN: 3cosystem – biggest tech and event calendar in your city (3cosystem.com) 7 points by sheraz 11y ago ↗ HN
[–] tckr 11y ago ↗ You are just aggregating Meetup and Eventbrite.How do we get other events listed? [–] sheraz 11y ago ↗ Right, but it seems that meetup and eventbrite are about 90% of the events in any place. So chasing that last 10% is not part of the MVP.That said, I've been thinking on this question. I see two easy ways:1. a Webform with email verification / admin verification2. (My favorite) - Make a calendar invite to events@3cosystem.com and I can have Mailgun handle the request to my API.3. Submit your URL to an iCal/Gcal and I scrape it on a daily cron.Any other thoughts?

That said, I've been thinking on this question. I see two easy ways:

2. (My favorite) - Make a calendar invite to events@3cosystem.com and I can have Mailgun handle the request to my API.
3. Submit your URL to an iCal/Gcal and I scrape it on a daily cron.
Any other thoughts?
