| pleia2 | fwiw, meetup.com has been very good for our events discoverability-wise, so far I think it has bumped the number of people who attend | 19:57 |
|---|---|---|
| pleia2 | but I've noticed that there is a high percentage of people who sign up and never show, much higher than I've seen for other RSVP systems | 19:58 |
| pleia2 | I think that's a "thing" with free meetup groups, I've seen it happen with other groups too | 19:58 |
| pleia2 | and I would like to keep the LTP (and/or an "email me to RSVP) option as long as we can, there is still strong opposition to using the proprietary, aggressive meetup.com tooling and a lot of folks here simply won't | 19:59 |
| lynorian | pleia2, yeah I agree lots of people sign up to meetups then don't show | 20:00 |
| DonkeyHotei | it's like a like button i guess | 20:40 |
| philipballew | Putting signs with free food helped me. But then people showed up for the food and nothing else. | 21:31 |
| nhandler | I'm guilty of clicking the button on meetup and not showing (although I do try and update my rsvp when possible). Clicking the button adds it to my calendar, sends me reminders, and sends me updates from the organizers. | 21:36 |
| philipballew | I like how meetup.com can add it to your calender. Thats probably its best feature for me. | 23:22 |
| lynorian | it does not have calcurse support | 23:34 |
