Meetup
Yea, I know I could have posted this in Cool Sites but more folks will see it here.

There was a great article in the Atlanta paper today about a website called
http://www.meetup.com/

It is hard for a lot of people to find people of similar interest...even if it is just to hang out for a couple of hours.

I looked at the website and there are some area ones that look interesting....already told my hubby about the local photography club!

I'll let you know if I join any and how they turn out!

I joined it when I moved back up to Portland since I moved half way through the school year. There are some really awesome groups. It's kinda weird meeting up at first, probably similar to a blind date.

You meet some great people. Usually the activities are fun. Tomorrow I'm going to a wine tasting with a few women I met through it.

I had heard about this about a year ago. It looked interesting, but I never tried it. I told my guy to check it out when he moved to his new town...but he seemed very hesitant.

I joined a meetup group when I first moved back home. Mine would go to movies every Friday night! Whoever came just came and it was nice for people like me who looooove movies but didn't have any company. Once I got settled in and made friends, I stopped attending, but I don't kinda miss it. Who knows, maybe I'll start again on Fridays my friends are busy.

I'll be in north Atlanta, near Perimeter mall... between Sandy Springs and Dunwoody. I haven't picked a hotel yet. I'll probably book it after our next planning call (when I will book my flight as well).

I'm a member of a couple of local Meetup groups. My husband and I have met some great people to socialize with. My beer lovers' group actually met for dinner (and of course beer) this evening. It's a great way for people with similar interests to ... well, meet up.
