We Sketch Our Vision
We’re excited to announce the soft-launch of Hapnin.com, our hyper-local events platform. We’ve put a lot of thought and effort into what we included (and excluded) in this release. This is a sketch of our vision, you can see what our goal is, but there’s a lot more to do!
The Problem and Solution
Showing hyper-local, time sensitive events is critical and the response has been positive. Please leave your thoughts in the comments section. It’s hard to find something to do nearby if you have a short time horizon (now - 24 hours.) Hapnin.com aims to solve this problem by showing you fun things to do.
The Platform
From the very beginning, we wanted to strengthen our community and the connection people have to it. Sharing our information is the best way to do this. Hapnin.com is a platform, which means you can take a slice (or all) of our event stream and create a “things to do section” on your site.
Check out these sites that have their own event streams:
http://www.SoUrban.net/east-village-events
http://greasyguide.com/harlem-nyc-events/
http://thisbarsucks.com/events-calendar-brooklyn-new-york/new-york-brooklyn-events/
We know Hapnin.com will help people find great things to do in their neighborhoods and we hope they’ll feel more connected to their community.
