[Meta] Most meetup threads have no comments. It seems like it would be useful for people to post to say "I'm coming", both for the organiser and for other people to judge the size of the group. Would this be a good social norm to cultivate? I worry slightly that it would annoy people who follow the recent comments feed, but I can't offhand think of other downsides.
Many meetup attendees don't have LW accounts, so it may not be a very good measure.
and even the ones who do will likely not bother to vote every single week for regular meetups.
this is what I found when i tried to use facebook: many of the people who go to meetups who even have facebook accounts don't bother responding.
