re: "you can join a meetup group in a single city"I meant that you can join
meetup groups in multiple cities, but typed the wrong thing.

Yes, of course; you can join a meetup group in a single city but, if you lived
in Canberra, you would not search for meetup groups in Sydney because you only
search by the supposed location of the meetup group not by the location of the
event. Yury could definitely create an event in Canberra but people would not
find it because Yury's meetup group is supposedly located in Sydney.
In other words, meetup groups grow through the process of people finding the
meetup group. Meetup.com also does a great job of recommending meetup groups to
its members which means that the meetup organizer does not have to work hard to
advertise the meetup group. But, if I lived in Canberra, I would search for
meetup groups in Canberra and Meetup.com would only recommend meetup groups in
Canberra to me.
Yury in Sydney could create an event in Canberra but he would have to tell the
people in Canberra about it. But If Yury created a different meetup group just
for Canberra, then Meetup.com would start recommending it to people who lived
in Canberra.
P.S. Hasn't Yury moved to California?

Not really, Yury used to run the Sydney meetup group and I was able to
subscribe from Canberra (300 km away). Or am I misunderstanding what you were
saying here? PetePete Sharman

Subject: RE: Lunch: I'm a DBA - ask me anything That would save the organizer
fee of $19 per month ($15 per month if you pre-pay for 3 months and $12 per
month if you pre-pay for 6 months). The problem is that one can only search by
the location of the meetup group (Chicago in this case) not by the location of
the event (e.g. Southern California). In other words, a meetup group is
effectively limited to a single city. Iggy

already have an organizer account for this.)--
