These new upgrades are very important in context to SXSW festival in Austin, Texas. And for a previous week every location based services had added a one or two more apps or features to their services.

However, Hot Potato is entirely different in offering its services as it lets allow planning future events as well as one taking place at the same time. This application has made it very easier to chat about an event and upload photos and videos from over there. Another important development with respect to Hot Potato event tool is Twitter integration. And at SXSW integration festival only relevant and useful Twitter will be shown up.

Next important feature added to Hot Potato is Calendars, that is now available to every Hot Potato users, where a user can add up to the events that become part of the calendar, though with your friends you can be added up to other services and events as well. Features like Push Notifications over revamped email, has been added to the event tool. And above all the new service has its own entire full API so other developers can also interact with the data.
