Join A Group and Meet Someone New

Yesterday, I wrote a post about unconventional method of sharing ideas. My idea was about building a better way to meet someone new. It has actually sparked some interest, so I’m excited. Just the fact that people are reaching out means that there is a demand to talk to someone you’ve never met offline.
Similarly, my friends over at MyMomIsAFob are trying doing the same, by making wiki’s with the good ol’ pbwiki. I like their initiative so I figured I’d help spread the word.
The first one is College Tweetup. This is a list of people on twitter and which colleges they go to. Tired of A-list bloggers not responding to your tweets? Twitter is much more fun when you can find someone who actually replies to your replies. Moreover, I think twitter is more meaningful when you actually have some information about the person’s background. Like I said before, Facebook is not really a good place to meet new people, at least for the way the young people use it. However, Silicon Valley folks seem to use it like teens use MySpace, add everyone. Anyways, follow a fellow college student or add yourself on the list.
Cal Startups is the second wiki, aimed to connect Berkeley students who interested in finding other entrepreneurs. The general consensus is that the campus is too big, and it’s hard to meet others. Let’s get the programmers and UI designers together, and make something happen.
Well, that is all. Goal of the day: talk to a stranger.
