Organizing a large party or get-together can be a real pain but the GiddyUp mobile planner makes planning an event with friends quick and easy.
While texting and emailing can be effective for small gatherings, and Facebook event invites work if something is happening months down the road, few digital options out there allow for conducive planning or spur-of-the-moment shindig coordinating. The application allows the user to create an event and add friends in their contact list to it and respond to it immediately as it comes directly to their phone. It even works if someone does not have the app installed as the program will alter the invite into text message form.
It is also handy for impromptu hangouts as it offers the ability to create and event and then discuss it in a chat format to nail down spontaneous plans.
