Event Managment

Looking through the uses of Doodle it appears that it may be a very useful tool, particularly when trying to organise people that are in seperate locations. It was very easy to use and has a nice, clean interface.

Google calendar was easy to access and was very easy to use. If the user does not have access to a calendar in their email program e.g. Microsoft Outlook then Google Calendar would be a very useful tool to keep track of tasks. However when the user does have access to a calendar as part of their email it is an incovenience to login to Google Calendar and have that open as well as an email program. Something to think on though.

Looking through Eventbrite, Eventful and Anyvite was very interesting, although these tools has many similarities they appeared to have some unique differences which makes it difficult to determine which tool I preferred. Eventbrite allowed ordering and payment options which may be very useful, Eventful offered widgets and facebook connection, Anyvite appeared to allow a great deal of customisation. I think it would depend on what event you were wanting to promote and if that event was a personal event or professional event as to which tool would be the best option.

More use of the tools may also assist in deciding a preference and I will continue to test these event management tools.
