Thanks for the Suggestion Part 1 - Email everyone watching/attending your event

It's been a while since we blogged about anything new at Upcoming. But it's not for lack of stuff to talk about, we've just been a little busy tuning up our robots. We're always happy to hear from you, so this week I'm going to focus on some features we've recently added in response to the suggestions we get everyday on our Suggestion Board. I'd like to start with one of my personal favorites, which enables the event creator to send a note to everyone who is watching or attending the event.

The original suggestion from Warren Prince said:

"From a planning standpoint, it would be nice to be able to send a bulk email out to event attendees who have registered..."

That sounded like a great idea to us. Want to give it a try? Next time you are on the details page for an event you posted, look for a handly little link in the right rail that says:

      Need to be heard?
      + Send a note to all watching/attending this event

Great idea Warren, like I said this is one of my favorite new features. It's an easy way for me to reach out to folks attending my event and let them know what's up.

Is this feature useful for you? Either way let us know in the comments, I'll be back later in the week to talk about more suggestions that have made it out to the site.
