Yes, I was thinking that weather could be a possible new addition. I didn't know about the Yahoo Weather API. Thanks for the tip! :-) Thanks Prashant.

Maybe having the option of the user entering a date for the invite, that way you could maybe hook into the <a href="http://developer.yahoo.com/weather/" rel="nofollow">Yahoo Weather API</a> to grab weather info? Great work, I look forward to more locations :) Andrew,

Shame there aren't too many spots in the govs database for Tassie. I think the Facebook link is a great idea to make a collaborative bbq effort with friends that much easier. Great work sport!

An input box with a search button. I'm a fan of the Fridgemate site. I'm also a fan of Google. I'm also a fan of <a href="http://search.twitter.com" rel="nofollow">Twitter search page</a>. No one is accusing Fridgemate of stealing their interface. I think the results page is different and the purpose of the site is different as well. Fridgemate is a site for providing information about local community. Meat in a Park is a site for organizing a social gathering with friends. FYI: The site I copied the most is www.liftsurfer.com (a site I developed myself). Sorry you feel that way, but that is essentially the easiest way to search for location data.
