I joined the Hacker News LinkedIn group a while back and reached out to a few guys from Kansas City. We had a nice lunch and chatted about projects, work, HN, and kids. I jokingly called it the first official meeting of the Kansas City Hacker News Group. We should really do that again, it was pretty cool. Not that there's anything wrong with a niche website for coordinating those lunches, but for me it's easier to just keep it simple.

As a fellow KCer, I agree! So do a few others: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2046160 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2046160 I'll join the linked group.

Group meetups are great but I envisioned the site to help one-one meetups. Since only two people are involved, less time is spent on planning and deciding on a date. At least so I thought.

Wow, sorry I missed a KC meetup. Hope to make it next time. :)
