Conferences
I had an idea once about how to use a club like this to hook up with friends and interesting contacts at conferences...
A few times eacy year, I go to industry conferences in cities that I don't know at all.
I always thought it would be great if I could join an online community of other people in my business, and that we could meet up after hours for a drink and to talk shop.
Suppose there were something like a calendar of events around the world, and us club members could sign in if we were going to attend. Then we could arrange a time, place and date to meet up for a small get-together.
Just a thought.

Oil Girl --- great idea.
I'm involved in a bunch of conferences from Houston to London to Istanbul, and have been for ten years (which shows my age). The main reason for the Club is to get members together not only online but at real events as well.
Our strategy is to host Platform meetings alongside other conferences (see Events here) in addition to regular get-togethers they locals decide. Let's compare notes on what this could mean.
Where are you based?
