a User Group management engine (though user groups are quickly growing passe thanks to the Internet)


Hmm... Interesting idea.

Imagine we had a list of Geographic areas submitted by forum users. That list could be refined and used by other members to choose their location for their profile. The list would expand as and when a user from a different place joined.

This would help us to get a clearer picture of which community members are in our area and therefore it would make it easier to organise user groups.

For example it would be interesting to know which members lived in Manchester (UK) but it would also be nice to know who lived in the North West of England.

[Edit] I know there already exists a location section in the profile but not everybody seems to be using it properly if at all :-)
