Earlier quoted context omitted.

Filled in my slots, let's do something with this information.Looks like most folks are available on Saturday. Guessing we'd want to be in Santa Monica?

How about something more central for us east-siders? The new Konbi in Culver City would be great! Insanely delicious, lots of outdoor seating?

How's a 3:00 PM meetup on Saturday at Culver City's Konbi [1] sound?

Here's a link to a Discord server if it helps coordinate logistics [2].

Someone should make a global map with a web app that you can place a search engine protected email address on + GPS location - to contact in case of desire to grab a coffee over locale-focused startup & tech convos. Boom.

I like this idea alot, maybe something like this:

User opens app, makes a possible meetup that s/he is into , it then shows up on the map as just the title of the Group, along with maybe an interest count of initially 0.

If others click on it enough, the original users gets notified that this 'has momentum' and whether or not they want to schedule an actual get together. If they do, all other people are notified of the event.

like meetup.com, but the emphasis is on the location.

Is that what you were thinking ?

ITT: A disturbing lack of people requesting a Seattle meetup! I have a small group of founders I could likely convince to join. Anybody have any venues they would recommend? I've found Optimism to be pretty great

Message the organizer and post it here too please.
