Evite to become more than RSVP tool
Evite, one of the companies in Barry Diller's InterActiveGroup, is finally trying to take advantage of its sister companies such as Citysearch according to this Wall Street Journal story (subscription required):
"Evite is trying to become more of a place to come plan events versus just some tool to manage RSVPs," says John Foley, president of Evite, a Los Angeles unit of InterActiveCorp's Ticketmaster. He says additional services are planned over the next couple of months. He declined to elaborate but said Evite would have "all things for getting together in your local area."
....Ticketmaster doesn't break down Evite revenue but about 200,000 evites have been made a month this year.
