Do geolocation or enter a postal code, and see only the ones nearby?

Edit - please disregard this post

I don't trust geolocation.

Also, there's an advantage in a new user seeing all the meetups, since it accurately tells them how active we are.

And what about people who travel a lot and might check out a meetup in another city if they were reminded about it?

Geolocation usually works. The cost of a miss is low.

If the user had defined their location in their user profile, we'd use that instead.
