A very cool new way to get noticed: announce your event with Schmap.it on Twitter:

Schmap is free, easy to set up, and really useful if you host informal events. Take for example, a neighborhood cafe that has lots of book club meetings, open mike nights, live music, etc.

A Schmap tweet not only gets the word out about the event, it tracks confirmations, maps your location for customers, and provides a link to your website via your twitter profile.

But the viral doesn’t stop there. Schmap automatically creates a retweet for each attendee along with any comment they made, e.g. “PaulHesseBroker @web_tomatoes I’ll be there! I’m a commercial real estate broker specializing in Southeast LA and Northern OC… http://schmap.it/GWk3zi “.
