It would be cool if you could easily add a widget to the invitation that showed a weather forecast for the date and time of your Socializr event.

Maybe you could use existing tools from a site like Accuweather:
netweather.accuweather.com/

Just a thought!

Cool, you can add any Flash-based widget to your event.

Maybe one of these?

I certainly can and probably will!

I was just thinking, since you already capture an event's location, it might be a nice feature for everyone... under extras to be able to just select it, much the same way you offer the Meebo, personalizable images and payment URL options.

Just an idea!

By the way, most of those widgets offer current weather, or 5-day forecast, or they even require you to enter a location.

What I'm suggesting is you add a button that says the weather forecast for the exact event location, on the exact day of the event. It wouldn't be the common weather widget.
