FlexVite - Your New Party Planning Tool

Check out flexvite.com - a neat platform designed to maximize attendance to your party.  You select the type of event you're looking to host (party, happy hour get together, going to the movies, coffee, whatever), and then suggest a date/time range that you're thinking of.  You then send the invite to a group of people, and they all vote on the dates and times that work best for them.....once the vote is in, Flexvite automatically notifies everyone on the list what date and time won.    I dig it, I think it's a smart way of getting people together. 



Ideally this platform would sync with a service like Tungle (which I'm also a huge fan of), and automatically tell you what dates worked without having to bug people.  There's a clear need for social calendar syncing, but the problem is that most people don't track their social plans on any one calendar...I wonder if that information will ever make it online.  Maybe Flexvite is the first step towards that, we'll see.
