"By deeply integrating their event-planning capabilities with Egreetings' library of more than 5000 free digital greetings and our new Gift Center, we can offer our members a singularly convenient way to organize their events and communications.

TimeDance's easy-to-use service includes graphical invitations, RSVP tracking, message boards, maps and even weather information all geared toward making activity planning fun and hassle-free.
