I'm pleased to announce the launch of the newly redesigned Meetup Alliance site. Based on your feedback, it's now much easier to use and you have control over what you want to feature on your site.
Check out a 2-minute demo
6 highlights of the new Meetup Alliance
1) The core functionality is the same.
You still have a group directory, discussions, group updates, etc. It is just easier to use.
2) Your Meetup Alliance homepage now has "gadgets".
You can choose what you want to display on your Alliance and where it goes. Click on the "customize this page" and click on a gadget's title bar and drag it to where you want it to go.
3) Embed parts of your Alliance on other sites.
Any gadget in your alliance can be embedded into other websites (just like a YouTube video).
4) Add photos and feeds from other sites into your Alliance.
Feature content from blogs, group feeds, and even photos from Flickr.
5) Links to new resources pages are now featured in your navigation bar.
6) "Updates" and "Discussions" are easier to use.
Group updates and discussions are now separate. Going forward, updates will only be shown in the activity gadget.
To reach Alliance members, create a new discussion by clicking the link in the left navigation bar.
