Speed-wise, remember that none of this is yet cached by your computer as meetup already is. Everything you do here for some time will be brand new to your system, and will therefore take that little bit linger to download. As the site grows, so too it will be cached to some extent by ISPs as Meetup is, and will be quicker for that reason too.

If you have not been told the whole story, I suggest that you speak to your friends. They should have been able to tell you the whole story months ago. The fact that they did not is not the fault of the group. They were asked to spread the word. Recently we have taken the step of being more open about the move on Meetup, but for some time, all references to this site were coded.

You are of course welcome to continue to use Meetup for other things, but this group is moving from there due to irreconcilable differences. MUHQ have decided several times that what is in our interest is not what is in their interest, and have made damaging unannounced changes and have even crippled the site completely in the past.

I too loved Meetup until it became untenable. This site has cost more, not less than Meetup, but on an ongoing basis, especially when Meetup decide to change their billing arrangements (Which I know they are seriously considering.) it will prove less expensive for the members.

Here YOU control how much email you get. Here, your details will NOT be sold to Facebook. This site is not perfect. However it is OUR site, not one controlled by some corporate folks in New York. Here we the members are in charge of what happens.
