Email event reminders

Tagging
Add support for tagging items (pages, events, weblinks, whatever).
• Options for item owners to specify whether other users are allowed to add tags.
• Allow for multiple users to add the same tag, so it doesn’t go away unless everyone who added it removes it, or if the item owner or an admin removes it.keywords: tag, tags, tagging, folksonomy, category, categories, categorization, index, indexing

Stats, including charts, showing usage of the websites. Top pages, top search terms, top referrers, average page views per user/session, etc.

Share event data with other websites
Share as much event data as possible with other websites, such as Upcoming, Facebook, Meetup, etc.
Both directions — loading event information originating from other websites and posting events added to Wayground to those sites.
Also, tracking updates to those events so that changes on one site are propagated to the other(s).
RSVP tracking across sites would be useful, too. (Although, obviously complicated.)

Wiki-style editing of designated pages
Allow for some pages to be designated as wiki-pages so that multiple users can edit them, and the changes will be tracked (“page history”). Allow for choosing between open (anonymous) access, any registered users, only authorized users, or only site admins/staff, for access.
