I believe that by focusing less on “events” & more on “meetups” happening soon (meaning in the next hour to 24 hours) & by integrating info from leading meetup & check-in apps, one can overcome the 8 challenges listed in this article (see http://techcrunch.com/2012/01/22/post-mortem-for-plancast/).
Equally important is having a product that has a very clean and intuitive user-interface with functionality that allows for a meetup to be posted in 1-click, much in the same way that one would post a status update (see https://vitapeeps.com).
