We’re getting ready to launch our SXSW Party Planner. The app has been submitted to the app store, but since LocalBeacon doesn’t REALLY need to go through the App Store to be usable, why not try it out right now by visiting http://www.bigforge.com/sxsw/

If you have events that you want to publish in the app, please submit them to http://www.bigforge.com/sxsw/post/

More importantly, we’ll be giving away an iPad to a lucky person that tweets about our app. All you have to do is tweet the following:

I’m using the #SXSW Party Planner from @bigforge! Check it out, and enter to win an iPad! http://bit.ly/cTQ3nv

LocalBeacon 2.6 has been released.

This version adds photo galleries and tons of minor bug fixes! UI Improvements too. Check it out.

We’ll be working on push notification support next. Watch for it!
