Just found out that my local town has a #Linux user group. After living here for five years...

@fatboy I am really thinking about it. Sadly on their next meeting I have no time. But hopefully on the next one. I already subscribed to their mailing list to get informed.

@mmk2410 @fatboy are either of you by chance aware of any sites lug's use to advertise online?

@ramob @fatboy Do you mean all LUGs or some specific ones? The one in my town has a website at lugulm.de/

@mmk2410 @fatboy I meant more if there was an international list or something to that effect.

@ramob @fatboy I never heard of or saw one. But I also managed to not find my local user group for five years. So maybe I am not the best one to ask. 😬

@mmk2410 @fatboy That's part of why I'm curious, seems like something that there'd be some what of a need for. But perhaps everyone has turned to silos of information just going online when they need help.

@ramob @fatboy A website listing available user groups could certainly make some impact. Not only could interested people search for it but it could also be promoted in various ways. But IMO such a site should be hosted/maintained by some existing organisation to gain some initial attraction. A site no one knows about would also not get filled with entries.

@mmk2410 @fatboy I agree, I thought there might be one on one of the Linux Magazine pages or fsf but I didn't see one yet.
