Edmonton Events

Since the takeover of Edmonton Events by our new parent company, Nerd It Up, we've added man new features to the site, you may or may not have noticed. 

In the top menu, you will now see a link to the Edmonton Groupon feed.  Groupon is a company that offers a different coupon every day.  The Edmonton site, is obviously coupons for businesses in Edmonton.  The feed automatically updates as their site does, so the coupons change regularly, so you never know when your favourite business may be listed next!

We've incorporated a new login module that requires a First and Last Name, an ajax Username checker (verifies that the username you pick hasn't already been taken) and an email verifier.  As well, we've also added fields for a Company Name, user Gender, and an Avatar.  All of these features are designed to build a more community-based site, as well as increase security and protection.  Currently, we get a lot of spambots trying to hack into the site for malicious purposes, and we're trying to limit that as much as possible.  These new security features will help a great deal in that regard.

We've added a user Forum, where our members may go and communicate between each other, post questions and answers regarding specific events, or just generally chat.  With the forum, we've also incorporated a private message system, in case you want to ask someone a question privately.  

All in all, we hope that these new features will help build the community-base of this site and be effective tools in organizing and promoting your events in and around the greater Edmonton area.
