Event and venue-centric social network IPartee, which we have compared to a crowd of other online event services, has released a widget that allows users to share event details through their blogs, social networking profiles, and websites. We have embedded a widget below for the Crunchies ceremony that took place on Friday. Were we to have used iPartee for our invitations, you could have used it to see the event’s guests. Even though we didn’t use it for this purpose, you can still comment and review the event using the widget; you can also view photos taken at the event. The widget adds to the ways IPartee extends its presence across the web. You can also syndicate IPartee event information to Facebook, WordPress, Typepad, and Blogger. iparteeWidget = { eid: 3781, s: “MjAwOC0wMS0wOCAxNjoxNzozOQ” }; CrunchBase Information IPartee Information provided by CrunchBase → Read More
The social invite/event party is getting crowded. There’s Evite, Eventful, Upcoming, Windows Live Events, Zvents, Socializr, MyPunchbowl, Skobee, Renkoo, MadeIt, and ImThere, not to mention Facebook. Now, IPartee is trying to squeeze into the room. The Toronto-based startup, which was in the TechCrunch40 Demo Pit, emerged from private beta today. It is now open to anyone who wants to create a social network around concerts, clubbing, or other events. You can create a profile for yourself, for an event, or for a venue. Some of IPartee’s features include a social network, polls, personal calendars, event and venue calendars, groups, event photos, and event reviews. IPartee does a decent job at tying all of these things together. The ability to sell tickets through the site will come soon. People like to socialize around events, and the Web makes it easier to plan, promote, and find events. What IPartee needs, though, is a Facebook app and an OpenSocial app because nobody wants to recreate their social network just to do one thing.
