Its a free service that help you to join or create local groups that can get together in a convenient venue. We offer a convenient way to connect with others who share the same interests and ideas as you and live locally. There are thousands of groups that you can join in an easy-to-use, privacy-protected, and spam-protected environment. You can use the CityCita service at our web site or through any email program. The service is in Beta and is free for use. As techcrunch reviews CityCita emphasizes that their groups can be classified by any term or tag determined by organizers, instead of being limited to a finite number of categories determined by the service. That’s nice, but not a big deal. Tags may be the new hotness, but for mass adoption of an events system I imagine many people want a clear category tree. CityCita does have categories as well as tags. You can bookmark this on del.icio.us, Digg, Y! MyWeb 2.0, Netvouz, Furl, Simpy or Spurl.

With the open source revolution picking up steam, it is only a matter of time before an open source alternative is available, or is there a viable open source alternative already? ;) Agree with Newsminator.

I hope they get a lot of free competition. I think that MeetUp charges a lot for what they do (from the technical point of view they are just a simple web application).

The service is similar to MeetUp in that it allows you to find groups with similar interests in your geographical location. From there, you can organize events and keep people in the group informed on what is happening. The idea is pretty simple and it looks like there is somewhat of a feature debate between the different services.
