There are upcoming irregularly scheduled Less Wrong meetups in:

The following meetups take place in cities with regularly scheduled meetups, but involve a change in time or location, special meeting content, or simply a helpful reminder about the meetup:

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.

I would really appreciate a non-broken link to the Zurich meetup!

ETA: nevermind, found it in the sidebar.

This seems to be some kind of article editor bug; multiple links were broken from this page, but in raw HTML editor they were all correct, and after saving the page (without editing) from the HTML editor they got fixed on the page as well.

I also am somewhat confused as to the behavior of the links. A user has reported problems before, and at that time I noticed that the links seemed to work when accessed in the article preview, when viewing recent LW articles, but did not work when accessed from the dedicated article page. Currently they work form me from both locations.
