    Some of you who know me know I've been working on an app for all of us wheelers since about March. It's finally finished. Sorry if this is in the wrong spot, it felt best suited here. And no, I'm not selling anything and I'm not in any way affiliated with Tacoma World besides being a long time user and it being my home forum.

    This is an offroad planning and collaboration tool. We all goto events, whether it be meet and greets, mod days, lunch breaks, or wheeling trips but all of our info for them is so scattered and burred under pages hidden in threads. Wouldn't it be easier to make a thread on our favorite forums and just say, "Hey, this is the event and here's the basic info. More info and pics can be found on [link to event] and don't forget to RSVP to ensure your spot."
    This is why I created 4xEvents.

    It'll allow users to RSVP and see the event lineup as well as see who's going to be staff, trail leader, etc. Users can also share all their photos to their own dedicated album in one organized spot on each event so that we don't have to dig through pages just to find one pic that so and so posted last week. Keep the chatter on the forum, and the event info in one organized spot.
    I've tried to make it as simple as possible and have more things in development - such as quick sharing and RSVPing through a QR code. Got some big names backing it, I'm pretty excited about it.
    I'm not trying to compete with forums at all. This was originally started to be a plugin for forums but when I found out I wasn't able to do so for all forums I had to abandon that idea.

    Thoughts?
    The app was just launched today. I'm totally open to ideas, questions, quirks, and all the above!

    Feel free to check it out and sign up!

    Thanks Adam, means a lot! And thanks for letting me use your awesome photos!
    I hope we can all use it. The more feedback I get on it the more I can make it to better suit all of us.
