I love, love, love all things events and technology. If you can't tell by my tweets, Facebook posts and all my other social media interactions, I love to talk about events and the tools that help us do what we do better. In June 2011, I partnered with an organization called imbookin to bring you PlannerTech - an event technology showcase. This weekly blog series is going to help continue to expose you to new tools you need to be aware of as an event planner. Also, in case you missed it, PlannerTech could be coming soon to your area!
Today, we're talking about imbookin

What is the "problem" that your tool seeks to solve?
The problem our tool seeks to solve is the time consuming and frustrating process of finding a location (venue) for your event.
What is the best audience for this tool? Corporate events? Social? Other? Large? Small?

ABOUT MEET-MEME
As the world celebrates Martin Luther King Day today, I'm inspired by thinking of the man behind the celebration. The drive and the passion and the ability to inspire others. His work has certainly driven change in our world and I'm thankful for that. While I may never have the impact that he has (but who says I can't?), I do want to do my part. Today I thought I'd share some of the dreams that I have for our industry - the things that I am passionate about and driven to work towards in the coming year(s).
