This fragmentation is hurting all attempts at facilitating more interaction between readers (in as far as it's necessary...)
- dstein 16y agoa map with HN users Start here. All you need to do is match up HN usernames with their geo-cooredinates, and dump the coordinates into a Google map. Then at least you'd have an idea where the clusters are, and can work from there on how to setup a meeting (maybe via Meetup.com which is pretty good for this task btw).

- HackrNwsDesignr 16y agohow would you get the geocoordinates of hacker news users? I don't see it in the about profile, do you mean asking them for it?
- ashraful 16y agoInteresting point about the fragmentation. Perhaps integrating all these HN services could be helpful...
