Disrupt Startup Alley: CalendarGod Mashes-up Calendars With Location, Grab Beta Invites
CalendarGod, part of the TechCrunch Disrupt Startup Alley this week, is a new take - incredible as it sounds - on the concept of the calendar. Instead of trying to integrate random calendars as many other startups have tried in the past (but failed to find a model) CalendarGod attaches location to the calendar. In other words, injecting the crucial element of location and making it social.
Here's how it works: Just like on Twitter, users follow calendars and get a realtime feed of events and activity. So you can broadcast a calendar and get followers. So far the startup has integrated 10,000 local calendars ranging from shopping calendars such as One Kings Lane, Ideeli, and Sak's Fifth Avenue through to technology, music and community calendars. So in some respects it's a little like Plancast, but instead of following events put up by members, you follow the calendars from venues and event organisers.
