Free: Coordinatr

Posted on 25. Mar, 2008 by Kenny in Fresh Ideas, Technology

Coordinatr is to Evite what Twitter is to blogging. It’s specialty? “Microevents.” Want to invite a bunch of friends over for dinner and a movie? Coordinatr is your tool.

Now I love Evite. I typically use it for something every month or so. Even one I used it for a volunteer training at church. The only downside? I think our Evite page had a Victoria’s Secret ad on the sidebar most times I logged in. Not exactly the advertising I wanted to have for our Children’s Ministry training, but it wasn’t a huge deal. The beautiful thing about Evite is how it allows everyone to get feel the momentum of who’s coming to an event. Coordinatr does this is a very clean and simplified manner. I’m new to it and have only created a few simple invites, but plan to use it in the future. One great feature is that it will add events to participants personal calendars. It also provides a community feel where people can leave comments, discuss things and even post pictures and video. I see a lot of networking and collaboration possibilities (kind of like pre-meeting information and discussion) for non-staff members working on special projects or teams. Best of all, it’s free!
