Re: Phoenix Brit Expat Meet Up!
Been meaning to ask before -- is there any way we could have subgroups for local meet-up groups on BE. Sure there must be a few more out there who'd move here for the convenience of it all.

Re: Phoenix Brit Expat Meet Up!
Do you mean sub-forums or different groups in the meet-up calendar?

Re: Phoenix Brit Expat Meet Up!
different groups in the calender, Oz meet up should probably be seperate on their own as there's lot of those nutters and people in the UK heading that way...
don't seem enough call for a US meet up group, as it's only those lushes in AZ that meet up

Re: Phoenix Brit Expat Meet Up!
I meant sub-forums. We have a very small group that was originally on meetup.com and then moved to yahoo groups when the b*ggers started charging. We only really use it for arranging meetups. Sure there are others in this position.
My idea:
-USA
--Local groups
---Phoenix
---Sticksville
---Metropolis
---etc.
You can add areas based on demand from members. Don't envision they'll be big on thread numbers, but don't see that'll matter. Also will provide a quieter haven for newbies who are moving abroad to a specific area but are intimidated by the busier areas of the board.
Just throwing out an idea BTW. If you want to start it with the Phoenix one, it's all yours. I'll freeze the yahoo group and put links to the new area on here.

BTW, when all the info from the USA Read Me is in the Wiki, you can replace it with a single line. Read Me's take up valuable screen real estate.
