fundraising update I'm writing this in hopes that a few ideas are born from the discussion. This is our chance to change the discussion in the Senate. Let's first prove to the Republican Establishment that the liberty and freedom movement is looking to hire their own lobbyist, Peter Schiff...

Yeah, that kind of takes the wind out of the post's sails. It was turned off about six months ago, but fundamentally, we need a way to relate people to a locale or organization, and then roll them up to a larger group, and then combine everyone together. We did it with Meetup, but I'm...

Guys, I've given to the Schiff campaign last week. During the 2008 Presidential election cycle, there was a website that we built to help Ron Paul. http://www.ronpaulmeetupchallenge.com. The website isn't active tonight, but we might be able to get it reposted. The idea of the website...

We did a bit of work on the page in question, but I've not been following the forums for a while. What did you have in mind? Scott

a few changes I think we need to post more meetup type statistics. We're seeing new groups form each time the database gets swept. Also, new people are being added to the movement, and I think we ought to report on changes, much like $ donations roll accross the screen, we could show new...

I just posted this on the main page Please help our website Folks, A team of us has built a website that ties Meetup group member pledges to their group, and state of residence. Each Meetup within each state is represented. www.ronpaulmeetupchallenge.com The national page is a map of each...

Folks, A team of us has built a website that ties Meetup group member pledges to their group, and state of residence. Each Meetup within each state is represented. www.ronpaulmeetupchallenge.com The national page is a map of each state, and a cursor rollover gives high level statistics for...

marketing to the Meetups Guys, Just an FYI. I was working my state (Texas), drilling down to each Meetup contact representative, and sending them a notice with a link to the meetup challenge. I got the following message tonight: "Sorry, to help avoid unwanted email (spam), we limit the...

music on the site My wife keeps bugging me about putting the theme song to Superman on the site. She thinks Ron Paul is like Superman. I think he's more like Underdog.

Meetup Challenge Banner is on Ron Paul Graphs Dan at Ron Paul Graphs has put the www.ronpaulmeetupchallenge.com banner on the bottom of his site. The Daily Paul guy has been censoring the word on the meetup challenge. I guess he's tired of seeing the same posts. Boondoggle was going to...

update on the site Update has been completed on the state detail page. It now shows state and national numbers, as well as shading all Meetups that have a least 1 pledge, and lists all Meetups by meetup code, assuming no pledge.

Boondoggle I suppose. Not sure exactly how I'll receive the private message? Does it just come into my in-box?

meet-up follow-up Good idea in terms of tracking which states have been covered. I'll start a list. You can see by the rollover statistics on the site the following: Michigan 29 groups Ohio 52 groups Illinois 27 groups Wisconsin 28 groups Yes, I can send you the group...

notifying meetups I've notified the top ten meetups. I'm willing to share the responsibility, say a few states. I would provide you with the list of meetup groups within the state, and you'll need to hit their individual web pages, and use their contact program within Meetup, to send a...
