"Upcoming" Events

Are you looking for something to do this weekend, or for special events to attend while you're visiting another area? Or maybe you're hosting an event yourself, and want an easy way to let others know about it? You should check out Upcoming.

You can browse by city, date, category, or even venue to find out what's happening. You can even sign up for an RSS feed for one or more of those options! When you see an event that interests you, you can easily add it to your own calendar (Outlook, Yahoo, Google, 30 Boxes, or iCal) with a simple click of the mouse.

To add your own events, all you need is a Yahoo ID (which you can get for free, if you don't already have one). You have the option of having the event visible to the public, or only to people whom you invite. Invitations can be sent by email or to Upcoming "groups" that you belong to.

The only disadvantage I found was that it is restricted to events in "the real world", so you can't use the site to promote teleclasses, webinars, or the like. I'm surprised that more people haven't discovered this handy and easy-to-use tool!
