We'll definitely have a think about 12h vs 24h time formatting, you're the first person who's actually mentioned that and it is a bit of an oversight on our part, thank you :D
With regards to differentiating ourselves from meetup: we're building a tool that takes over once the event has started. Evite, meetup, etc are great at getting people to an event, but tools for organizing random mobs of people are lacking once an event kicks off.
I guess you could say that we're focusing on more ad-hoc event planning than something structured like a Meetup.
Thank you as well for your feedback regarding readability!
That differentiation totally makes sense, thank you for that. I can see this being really useful for something like SXSW where there are a lot of impromptu meetups/gatherings.
Something else that just stood out at me: The margin for the description under the "Activity Calendar" section doesn't seem to match the margins used under those sections elsewhere.
- While I personally like 24h time for start and end time, I doubt most other people will feel the same way
- The map is tough to read being so short, a little bit of height there would go a long way.
- Links in discussions would be a lot easier to use if they were auto-hyperlinked.
- The "X attending" under the attend this event button is almost unreadably (did I just make up a word?) small.
I think it's got potential, how do you plan on differentiating yourself from something like meetup.com?
