Six Apart News & Events

Upcoming revamps

Upcoming.org is a popular web-based events-tracking service, and Andy Baio, the site's creator, has just announced a number of significant new features.

In addition to expanding the types of events that can be entered, Upcoming now supports tags, a powerful REST API, a better design, and reminders by email or SMS.

These new features make it a much more powerful platform, and it should be possible to do fairly straightforward integration with TypeLists or a weblog calendar with the new API. We'll keep our eyes open for creative uses that connect with weblog platforms.
