Significant coding required for those. A LW frappr or other social map would be great, but

I do not support removing Meetups from the front page until such time as it can be assumed that there is one in every major city where large portions of the poulation speak English, conditional upon meetups not completely taking over the front page.

Counterpoint: I'm certain enough that there are no other LW members in Central Florida that I've refrained from posting anything regarding meetups. If there were a meetup section, however, I would at least throw something out there (although perhaps after I've had a chance to visit the NYC group).

Er, I'm in Central Florida...and would be interested in a meetup. (Assuming it does not conflict with my crazy travel schedule, of course! :)

If you have a crazy travel schedule, perhaps you'll be able to get to NYC before I do and ferry back the smoldering igniter for a local group. Although "local" may be a stretch; I live in St. Petersburg; the space coast is about a 3 hour drive.
