So I've been wanting to post the Berkeley meetups somewhere, and then also now there's the ai conference thing. It doesn't feel like those are appropriate for the front page, they're too transient; but it'd be nice to have a place to put them instead. What are folks' thoughts on this?

In the long run there will be a whole community section of the page, which also includes a rework of the meet up map and stuff. Until then, I think those things are best posted off LesserWrong.com

Is there a better solution? We don't want to make it significantly harder for groups to form for the next X months as X could be a very long time. Perhaps we could have a monthly meetups post?

I second the temporary meetups post idea.

I'm interested in a similar 'Shortform section' post to see how people interact with the general idea

Well, we do still have the old site. What is the cost of currently only having stuff available there?

I want to get this audience. I don't want to get that audience.

I second this.
