Eventable late night conversation
A conversation between Dan and I about our new web app called Eventable. Rushing out of the gate much faster than 7dots.
Daniel Morrison - why is the event link editable on this page? or editable at all?
Aaron Schaap - because people will want to copy it, put it into an email - place it on a website
Daniel Morrison - oh, and the average person is too stupid to copy plain text? I hate people.
Aaron Schaap - haha, what if it ends up wrapping
Daniel Morrison - what if it ends up filling your box?
Aaron Schaap - lol - this is the stupidest conversation I’ve had all day
Daniel Morrison - should we consider doing.. eventable.com/2006/07/04/eventable-launch-party
Aaron Schaap - I don’t think dates will be that good - people may change their mind on an event date
Daniel Morrison - yeah
Aaron Schaap - especially on donations
Daniel Morrison - sure
Daniel Morrison - i would like prettier URLs though and giving up your internal IDs is generally a bad idea, so at least /registration/248763
Daniel Morrison - or, do like ma.gnolia does, and use random words
Aaron Schaap - companyname.eventable.com/register/for/event-name/
Daniel Morrison - /regisration/usurpable
Daniel Morrison - ooh, i like that
Daniel Morrison - the for seems superfluous, but it is cool
Aaron Schaap - yea - it does nothing other than be cool
Aaron Schaap - later - we’ll have a section off our marketing site talking about how cool /for/ is
Daniel Morrison - haha, ok
Aaron Schaap - we’ll make him a celebrity
Aaron Schaap - damn - /for/ is so cool and gets /all/ the girls
Daniel Morrison - haha
Daniel Morrison - ok, now this is the stupidest conversation I’ve had all day

I’ll have to start watching what I say, lest the stupid people of the world take offense.
