I signed up for an account and submitted an event "Checking out the site." The trouble is, in order to post an event, you must select a venue and there are none in the database at the moment so no one will be able to submit events.

Obviously this could be fixed by populating the venue database, but I'm wondering about letting users submit their own venues. It would be really nice to be able to submit "Tupperware party at my house" and provide the address, but then you worry about "Toga party at Steve's house" that Steve doesn't know about.

venues are from a web service(yahoo pipes) that was pulling from just boston and 20miles north of boston (where i live).. I just updated it to pull your location from your ip and search 20miles around your location fro venues..
