Plancast – Social location planning.
Plancast — a service that lets you share future plans with friends, and view those from others — just got a whole lot more useful today. The company announced its API (application programming interface), which gives developers the ability to use Plancast’s data in their apps, reports the technology blog TechCrunch.
The service is best described as “Foursquare for the future.” Instead of telling people where you are, you can broadcast what you’re going to be doing at any given point in the future. It’s similar to a shared calendar, except it offers up a social graph like Twitter or Foursquare. You have the ability to follow people you’re interested in, and you can also lock down your profile to select readers. Not surprisingly, Plancast is looking to integrate with calendar services like Google Calendar. It also recently added the option to import events from Facebook.

The discount grows with the group size, proportionally to your pricing. It’s an incentive based system, and as everyone gets the last price after the deadline you set, all participants virally share your offers with their friends across social networks.

e-commerce and social media promotion
Disney’s new Facebook application, Tickets Together, represents the company’s latest attempt to bridge e-commerce and social media promotion. The first test of the ticketing app is for the much hyped Toy Story 3. Although the animated film doesn’t open for another two-and-a-half weeks, Facebook members who download the app to buy tickets will also be encouraged to invite friends to make a purchase as well, says the NYT, which noticed that the app first appeared on the social net site on May 26.

GoTryitOn
An interesting insight into social opinions.
This site acts as a hub for people wanting opinions of clothing, for example asking for a vote on a dress to wear to a wedding. The main contributors seem to be women, but I did notice men commenting on one ladies dress.
Make your own assumptions, but the social behavior around wanting complete strangers opinions is very interesting.
