Well Done Icey and Kirubakaran!

One thought, maybe let people who are attending, but not creating events to leave links back to twitter/blogs. Saves them from filling out a profile, which might be an initial barrier. Great service though.


Thank you. You can post a discussion and do most stuff without having to login/signup.


More details: http://eventgel.com/about/

This will help you coordinate what you'd like to do this weekend around Startup School. We made a related posting about this a few days ago http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=883731, received great feedback and incorporated most.

This is our startup (icey, kirubakaran). Please use it and tell us what you think.

[p.s. I'm going to be offline for a while. Flying to Berkeley]


You need comment moderation :-(


Yes. I logged in and deleted that offensive comment. We'll have comment moderation in place soon.


Is Wheeler Auditorium in Zellerbach Hall or in Wheeler Hall? Startup@Berkeley's map says it's in the latter, but this and a couple other sources say it's in Zellerbach.


Ah, I've found the cause of confusion.

http://startupschool.org/, "Wheeler Auditorium" links to http://facilities.calperfs.berkeley.edu/wheeler/.

Which lists:

>MAILING ADDRESS

>Cal Performances

>101 Zellerbach Hall #4800

>University of California, Berkeley

>Berkeley, CA 94720-4800

However, this is just the mailing address for Cal Performances. It just happens that Zellerbach is another large auditorium/performance center.

Wheeler Auditorium is in Wheeler Hall. If you get confused where it is, it's near the Campanile (big clock tower).

Not sure who to be ashamed of more; my alma mater or the internets for reading comprehension and fact checking.

Edit: Now that I think about it, #101 is likely the box office at Zellerbach. We really should get a sign there that says: 'Startup School is at Wheeler Auditorium.' Map: You are here, Wheeler over there.


Hmm, I certainly didn't intend any confusion - I just grabbed the address from http://startupschool.org

If there is a better address I can list on eventgel, I would certainly be happy to do so.


http://maps.google.com/maps/place?ftid=0x80857c242d2f5c4d:0x...

Wheeler Auditorium is located in Wheeler Hall.


Thanks for this, I updated the address last night with the correct location.


This is something I've been looking for for a while. Thanks, guys. And, thanks for posting the event that I'm hosting: http://eventgel.com/ev/startup-school-09/hackers---founders/
