Meetup really could be a 10x better platform.
As someone who's run a group on it having to pay to then put in the work to run a group on top of that is just crazy. They could have monetised the platform in so many other different ways which could have helped the community instead of just going for the easy pickings of charging the event organisers. Why not charge a percentage on top of any payments take?
Create/integrate with a room booking system in cities to help organisers book? (and take a fee on this) The only thing Meetup does well is discovery - the domain name is amazing for the type of site it is and it is easy enough to search for groups in your city and find what you want. Everything else is pretty terrible. I don't know how you could justify having more than 3 dev's working on this site the way it is at the moment. It just screams lazy... |
