Project: Calendar Overview We want to create a database of events that users can interrogate to find events that are being held according to the following criteria. ∑ By country ∑ By city ∑ By date ∑ By website ∑ By price ∑ By event type ∑ By game type ??" 20 types ∑ By venue ∑ Plus two more fields that can be added later, to refine the search We want users of the database to be able to subscribe to their events of interest, whatever parameters they set using the above mix of criteria, via RSS. We also want users to have the capability to sign up for SMS/text message alerts when events they have registered an interest in are added to the database, or are approaching. So the database will need to drive the software that sends out the RSS feed emails and can manipulate the CSV files containing the SMS subscriber details (our current research suggests this is how these work, but we are open to suggestions) allowing the system to be as automated as possible. The database will drive a website that needs to be simple and quick to understand and use. So users can look for the information via keyword(s). We would also like analytics to be able to study user interface habits and preferences.
