So, the recent "Death of Upcoming" post/discussion got me thinking (see http://waxy.org/2013/04/the_death_of_upcomingorg/ and https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5578841) ...
I always snap photos of event posters when I see them in coffee shops. So, why not have an event guide that is more visual and based around these posters?
So I built that real quick: http://www.eventeresting.com
Right now it just directs to my local area (san luis obispo) but it can support multiple regions.
I'm using Mailgun to receive email attachments and it puts the events in a list waiting for moderation.
Feedback welcome. If anyone wants to moderate a Bay Area list, let me know (I'm thinking of posting some gigs on Craigslist or Task Rabbit to get events up there).
