There are upcoming irregularly scheduled Less Wrong meetups in:
- Melbourne practical rationality meetup: 04 November 2011 07:00PM
- Canberra Meetup Saturday November 5th: 05 November 2011 11:00AM
- First Zurich LW Meetup: 12 November 2011 03:00PM
Notice for the Mountain View/Tortuga meetup: The Mountain View meetup is moving to *Mondays* (still at 7pm, still at Tortuga); and over the next few weeks will present pieces of the "Detaching from Sunk Costs" rationality kata currently under development.
Cities with regularly scheduled meetups: Austin, Berkeley, Cambridge, MA, Irvine, London, Marin, CA (uses the Bay Area List), Mountain View, New York, Ottawa, Oxford, San Francisco, Seattle, Toronto, Washington, DC, and West Los Angeles.
If you'd like to talk with other LW-ers face to face, and there is no meetup in your area, consider starting your own meetup; it's easy (more resources here). Check one out, stretch your rationality skills, and have fun!
If you missed the deadline and wish to have your meetup featured, you can reach me on gmail at frank dot c dot adamek.
Despite the handy sidebar of upcoming meetups, we've decided to continue posting an overview of upcoming meetups on the front page every Friday. These will be an attempt to collect information on all the meetups happening in the next weeks. The best way to get your meetup featured is still to use the Add New Meetup feature, but you'll now also have the benefit of having your meetup mentioned in a weekly overview. These overview posts will be moved to the discussion section when the new post goes up.
Please note that for your meetup to appear in the weekly meetups feature, you need to post your meetup before the Friday before your meetup!
If you check Less Wrong irregularly, consider subscribing to one or more city-specific mailing list in order to be notified when an irregular meetup is happening: Chicago, Helsinki, London, Madison, WI, Melbourne, Pittsburgh, Southern California (Los Angeles/Orange County area), St. Louis, Vancouver.

Living in Tagbilaran on Bohol right now. If you can find other interested parties I might be able to make it to Manila.

Roman, How you doing, staying dry I hope. Looks like you and I are the only ones in The Philippines.
What are you doing down there? I'm retired but I stay very active!

My Dad's a retired airforce officer. Living with him. right now. Studying nursing. I do some digital painting and programming and I'm going to see if I can make some money at it (online, wages are terrible here!).
