<p>Two high-profile, Web-based Philadelphia startups each announced more services to their products recently.</p>
<p>Center City-based, event-planning social network <a href="http://www.i-meet.com/">i-Meet.com</a> announced today its partnership with PlannerNet, a service aimed at helping its nearly 10,000 member organizations to find, rate and contract for project-based labor.</p>
<p>That move follows a host of new add-ons to <a href="https://www.phindme.net/"><strong>PhindMe Mobile</strong></a>, a mobile Web direct-to-consumer advertising company based at Drexel University&#8217;s <a href="http://www.lebow.drexel.edu/Centers/Baiada/index.php">Baiada Center for Entrepreneurship</a>, which came earlier this month, according to a company press release.<a href="http://www.lebow.drexel.edu/Centers/Baiada/index.php"><br />
</a></p>
<p>The new service offered by i-Meet, the brainchild of 17th and Oregon&#8217;s own John Pino, is said to identify professional meeting and event skills that are available worldwide, helping to match planner experience and projects for event organizers. It&#8217;s a move <a href="http://technicallyphilly.com/friday-q-and-a/friday-qa-center-city-professional-networking-site-i-meet-hopes-to-make-good">Pino hinted at during an interview with Technically Philly</a> in May.</p>
<p>&#8220;In this challenging, economic environment, companies are becoming more inclined to staff their events on a project by project basis,&#8221; Pino says in a company press release. &#8220;By connecting our worldwide social network to PlannerNet, we&#8217;re&#8230; delivering qualified talent&#8221;</p>
<p>PhindMe&#8217;s new features are more varied, ranging from native smartphone applications to Twitter functionality.</p>
<p><span id="more-4509"></span>The service will be able to publish a client&#8217;s mobile Web site as a native app for the iPhone, BlackBerry and Android operating systems, a release from CEO <a href="http://tphilly.com/tag/chuck-sacco">Chuck Sacco</a> read. Now a company&#8217;s existing blog or any other RSS feed can be easily integrated for mobile users. PhindMe additionally boasted the addition of Twitter-powered mobile pages, featuring custom Twitter feeds and remote mobile page editing. The site also announced it would now accept international payments.</p>
<p>If <a href="http://technicallyphilly.com/friday-q-and-a/friday-qa-chuck-sacco-of-phindme-mobile">an interview we had with Sacco from April</a> is any indication, these new features aren&#8217;t what are on his mind.</p>
<p>&#8220;Our future is less about cool new features and more about ensuring we have the most efficient ways to distribute our products,&#8221; <a href="http://technicallyphilly.com/friday-q-and-a/friday-qa-chuck-sacco-of-phindme-mobile">Sacco told us</a>. &#8220;Hopefully you’ll see some new distribution deals for us where we get our products into the hands of some big players and become known as the new standard for the mobile web.&#8221;</p>
