Beef-up and Meet-up

In his piece, Let’s Beef-up and Meet-up, Hamid Tehrani challenges activists to find new and exciting ways to use technology. He points to the example of Meet-up, a kind of matchmaking service that brings groups of like-minded people together. Knitters in New York can meet and ply their craft together over coffee. Lovers of Dostoevsky can find each other and meet to discuss Crime and Punishment. Why not use similar technology to beef-up civil society?
