but I don't like to join unless I can see the calendar of past events (to see if they're local/relevant/interesting etc)... catch-22 sometimes ;)
Hmm... that does seem a little foot-shooting, unless you join too many groups and want a reason not to ;)
There's nothing in the ExtroBritannia list's calendar though, but you can see the events on the blog.
unless you join too many groups and want a reason not to ;)
That would be an accurate description of my life ;)
Currently I am interested in way too many things - and have a habit of joining up to all of them to see if I'm interested enough to continue going along...
Unfortunately I am limited by time from going to everything I'd like.
I'm enjoying lesswrong.com a lot so far, and it sounds like the last LW/OB meetup was a lot of fun. MBlume asks:
I don't think that there are so many of us that we need an automated system for this; the threading system should be enough.I'll post a few top-level comments for various parts of the world, and encourage you all to follow up and tell us where you are. Ideally, find a comment that has where you live in it already and add "me too".
I'll try to keep this post updated with useful things. I can't wait to play Paranoid Debating!
Edit: Please don't post where you live in a new top-level comment! Try to find a comment referring to the rough geographic region you live in and post under that; it'll make this post easier to navigate. I've divided the world into three (North America, Europe, everywhere else); posting under those comments will help. Thanks!
