Other meetup locations

[QuantumTroll]

I'm going to be almost exactly 6,000 km away from the meetup in September.

The Brits appear to be organizing their own thing, even though they're about 1,000 km closer, the lazy bums. The Aussies are, of course, completely boned. Apparently even some Americans are too lazy to drive a thousand miles to Massachussets, and I thought they loved driving. I guess some love being lazy even more

I'm guessing there may be other lumps of xkcd fandom that would be interested in hanging out for a day if it's closer. How about people post their location here if they're interested in a mini-meetup.

I'll be in Uppsala, and I'm betting there's another Swedish reader in that area. What do you say?

The Bay Area. I realize that's ambiguous if you're not from around here, so I'm referring to San Francisco and surrounding metropolis, particularly East Bay but it shouldn't make a difference.

Yeah me Spit and pollywog are going to have a mini-meetup via a paint ball match

/joking (I'm so lonely)

There are a couple more of us who don't post that often...

Anyway, I'm moving to Nova Scotia in September, so I'm actually going to be fairly close (something like 600km instead of 10000km...)

O right, you two were the only that came to mind I also (jokingly) invite all other NZxkcdians!

maybe some kind of webcam telepresence thingy?

What might be better is to just gather up information of everyones location who wishes to meet up, then find the density centers of those locations to decide the meeting points.

That's speaking like an xkcder I think there's a (flickr?) map or something somewhere.

That or someone could hack something up in perl

8 posts and I am already an xkcder. Well, 9, counting this one.

Flickr sounds good; the hardest part would be gathering the data and applying natural boundaries.

Not flickr! Frappr. Why can't these things have easy names?

Err, right. Thats what I was thinking. Why didn't I catch that?

I'm in California "Pacific Palacades" down the road from Micheal Jacksons in late October if there is a meet then?

Visiting family, but if there is a meet then thats cool, I don't expect there to be one but its worth a shot.
