Community Events

I perused the winners list on SEOmoz's best of Web 2.0 site, looking for things that might have a practical use in our library. I stopped and browsed when I got to the "events" category.
I am always looking for fun stuff to do and Upcoming was a fantastic place to look for stuff to do. Not only can you browse by location, but by any key word placed in the event's tags.
When you find an event, you can invite friends, and then add it to your calendar with a click of a button (google calendar, yahoo calendar, ical, outlook & 30 boxes).
Wouldn't it be great to list our library programs here, or on any of the other event sites (besides our own library page). We could reach even more people! Eventfull seemed to have more events listed than Upcoming, though not as user friendly. And there are also community online classifieds where that type of information might be useful. I use craigslist all the time, and they have a community events section as well.
