So, I've finally got around to starting development on www.Upcoming.mobi .

It's nothing then a slight placeholder, explaining what the site is going to be with the logo.

But, it's a start.

A mobile concert/event listing in which anyone can submit their event.

If you have any suggestions, I'd love to hear it. Also, if anyone knows how to set up a database where users can type in their zip code and get events local to them...that would be great help. At this point, I can't afford to pay anyone, so if you can't help, I understand.

Thanks for just checking it out!

I like the idea for your site!

As far as making it to what you want, it can be done with yahoo web tools:

http://developer.yahoo.com/

I haven't figured out yet how to make it work. A few developers around here know how to implement it and you can see it action on a lot of sites. I've pm'ed a few about it but they were unwilling to help :td:

Maybe a kind sould will chime in with the secret formula :) Or at least send PMs :red:

On the left hand column towards the bottom is the "local" link. Then click on v1 local search which brings you to this:

http://developer.yahoo.com/search/local/V1/localSearch.html

You first have to get your application ID.

I'm thinking, on the front page of your site you would put a script that asks for the area code. Then on the results page you need some coding to parse yahoo results based on what data was gathered by the script.

This is the example query they give on yahoo, i'm thinking you would set the keyword in this case "pizza" for whatever you want info you want the local search to display and then the script would inject the area code for the query.

http://local.yahooapis.com/LocalSea...pid=YahooDemo&query=pizza&zip=94306&results=2

It should not be too freaking hard to implement, but I haven't figure it out yet and I spent a day browsing the whole yahoo devloper site.

Maybe we should start a new thread and help each other figure this out!

Thanks, I'm going to check it out. One question. Does it just get the results from Yahoo? Or does it take it from you user generated info. I didn't quite understand.

(Example using what they give. Does the area code just find what Yahoo lists as the local pizza joints. Or is the area code getting the info from the pizza places that the webmaster put onto the site.)

It draws the results from yahoo local search.
