If you wanna meet up with other IMers, post it here!!!

example:

Northern California meetup this Saturday!

We're thinking Lunch and a Hindi movie in South bay. Anyone interested?
Byronic and Bijapuri will be there, and hope to meetup with anyone out there

I am very confused in this

Tried to post in TVM meet after i met sudheer in TVM. (posted a fresh thread by me)
Then in shout box

Then about PUNE meet in another thread

so far nobody noticed it

i think we have to shout like sudheer

hahhah

you seem to have a good attitude, lolol

bijapuri · Dec 14th, 2004, 23:49

One of the problems with posting meetups is, ironically, the success of this website. So many new posts are reducing the exposure time to hours on the front page, so if a post has no prompt replies, it disappears

If anyone has any ideas on this, pls voice it!

I do agree with u

A good post about Kathakali ( of course by me only

) went unnoticed by quite few. Now a new thread is about kathakali

, asking a lot of things i have already explained in my post

..
Yet another post missed by many was the article on the " miracel of music therapy" ...

I think we have to shout like Sudheer now in shout box

haha

Know what you mean Bij. I posted in the "Where was this photo taken" thread and have not had any answers yet. Thought it might be good for some friendly competition and a bit of fun. So far no takers. I even offered a PRIZE !
Isn't there some way to make a thread sticky, or is that just in the forums?

PS.... Things were pretty full in Mahabs, but was able to get a room reserved at Greenwoods.

Great idea, but I've got sooo much to do that I'll never be able to cram that in!

Would love to see you-all around mid-January, before I get into busy season.

Biji :As you said the ,so many post per day,The meet thread goes somewhere if no one reply.Have to bump up.

My Suggestion is we can make a Event Calender the meet up DATE .
I think no one used so far,if click "calender "it come add new Event.
It will show near "todays Birthday "
Dont members will check offten the dates.
May be Mike help us regarding this.

Biji , i just tried to put up 25th MEET UP AS EVENT Calender section.
If you click u can see ,just trail

post.The place and Venue you can add.

The thing memmebrs have to check this section. May be once we used to know,w can check for offten to find out any meet is there.

usha, bijapuri,
initially i used to see the first page which only has 10?? or so threads and i would miss the rest. So now i have started going directly to the "latest threads" link and check out all the messeges posted in that day or two days. That's my way seeing that i don't miss much.

bijapuri · Dec 16th, 2004, 08:11

All good suggestons.
Sorry you'll be missing us, WW

Looks like Byronic and I will be on our own. Well . . .
We go over every few weeks or so anyway

Still, last call . . . . anyone for meetup for lunch This
Saturday in Silicon Valley, and Hindi movie matinee after if desired ???

If yours is the last thread posted, there is a sneaky way to bump it up.

Copy the post, delete the post, then paste on a 'new' reply. (as I've just done in the 'Where was this photo taken' thread.

I have yet to come up with a solution so people can see it easier. Ideally I could just make a little block on the frontpage and just add a link to the threads. However it would have to be done by hand and often times meetups are just random and without notice and I am ill prepared to deal with them.

I am open for suggestions on how to handle them.
