View Article  Creating a Buzz for Integral Groups
Good article on this here.

My biggest limitation in San Francisco with this, is getting a decent room, in a decent location, for cheap-near free, in an area close to BART, but also with adequate and inexpensive parking.

When a group of 7 to 10 people show up for Wilber/integral, you can do a lot of interesting things, both from a practice and study perspective - but again, you want a private room to do so, without paying $40 for two hours. 

The one crap thing about San Francisco - rents!!  (And the fact that I have not been industrious in looking for a place...)
View Article  Interesting Zaadz feature
I've been reading a lot of "integralians", who have been signing up for the social network Zaadz.  I am reading this with interest, but I haven't signed up yet.  

(It takes me awhile to "join", what can I say?)

From my initial review, I'm not sure it is the best of the up and coming social networks.  I am a fan of the open source Elgg, and also Barnraiser looks to have better features, at the moment.

However -

I was alerted by Ryan's post to this Flickr feature - and it is definitely very cool.  Ideas are voted on by the community, and then graphically displayed.

As expected, the largest graphics - "groups/tribes", "place to gather", "connection to others", "friends", etc.

I'm a busy guy, so I would have to agree that:  meeting in meatspace on a regular basis, with a like-minded community, is a difficult proposition currently.  I have taken - and am taking - steps to remedy this, but attention pulls to other things than building that community.
