Events of interest

[hashplan]

Roma, the "events of interest" widget on the right hand side of user profile and events pages (which has 3 placeholders) should for now return the top 5 venues in the metroarea selected, sorted by number of events happening in the next 30 days (we might have to hard code the list of venues, depending on what results we see returned based on this logic). It should show a panel similar to how we display events but only have the name of the venue and number of events. Once either the name of the venue or the number of events is clicked, the main/middle part of the page should load the events in chronological order like we have all other events loading and header of the page should update to "events in metroarea-venue name". Basically we are trying to play around with idea of searching/filtering by venue within a metroarea based on some feedback we got. For now this filtering logic should only apply to this widget but we might release it to the user later to filter events by venue (along with all other filters we have for date, category, etc) rather than search by name of event. This is because I might have a venue in mind that I like going to, but I don't necessarily know what events will be going on there, so I might be inclined to search by venue name rather than event name.

Roma, This widget should filter per user's location, but should not only display events the user is signed up for when on http://hashplans.com/user/events/my. It should work similar to how it works on http://hashplans.com/user/events/all. Basically we want this to engage users and make them browse through other venues no matter what page they are on.
