Didn't really work for London. I live about an hour away but am fine with going to London when there's startup events. The 5 events shown in London are all either joke pages, local bar quizes or people's private events (Birthday Parties).

This is really cool, a nice style touch would be to be able to see what happening "this week" or "this weekend". If you sign in and your facebook event is set to private or closed does it aggregate it?

I like this a lot! Not a fan of how you handle clicking on the pin icons, though; Google Maps uses those pins to open information in a bubble within the window, and having my click open a Facebook page bothered me. It's a shame that your map conveys no useful data except by opening new windows/tabs; possibly consider an interface that loads that FB data in a frame, possibly from the mobile site to conserve space?

If you log in with Facebook, a window will actually display on mouse-over that gives the basic event info. It's a bug that we're currently working to fix.
