MyPunchbowl is on a move to battle Evite

Evite might be the leader in online party invitations online, but that's not stopping MyPunchbowl from steaming ahead to battle.

MyPunchbowl has just landed some seed funding that will allow them to build out there increasingly popular invitation tools. The first round of funding will see MyPunchbowl sort out its revenue model as well as hire developers and initiate marketing efforts to grow their event planning website.

Download Squad originally covered their launch early this year. Punchbowl Software has watched the event space heat up, and this new cash will allow MyPunchbowl to be develop a strict verification and feedback process to ensure that its design is easy to use for the everyday party planner, making for a much more enjoyable planning process.

MyPunchbowl is a free event planning website that helps coordinate, manage and plan parties through an easy to use party planner checklist and slick easy to use interface. Keep your eye on these guys.
