Bloggers meetup

Chapel Hill bloggers have started using MeetUp to get together in the real world. Given the success of the Berkman weekly blogging meeting, it seems like a great idea. Good luck to them.

A search at MeetUp on "blog" turns up interesting results: 450 meetup groups for LiveJournal, 34 for Persian Blogging, 54 fgor MovableType, 3 for Video Blogging. It'd be interesting to see how many meetups spawn group blogs... [Technorati tag: meetup ]

I organize the meetup group for bloggers from Copenhagen. We are currently one of the largest meetup.com groups in Denmark, with 73 members. Bloggers seem to learn a lot by meeting eachother, and there's been a wide range of initiatives for this in Denmark.

We've been doing weblog meetups in Seattle for 2.5 years. it's been great fun! Meetup.com has made improvements in the last year that allow a lot of flexibility in choosing venues, times, etc.
