I've seen some general groups for various topics use meetup.com to organize events and stuff, but it's not a cost free option and tastes incredibly formal. I was thinking maybe I could put some kind of dorky flyer up directing to a page or irc channel or email group, and see what kind of interest I can find. It's not the most high tech solution, but it might be my best bet as far as reaching local folks go.

Note 1: I'm in an area that is more likely to attract biohacker (San Francisco/Bay Area).
Note 2: Joining a group and participating in it are two very different things on the Meetup.com site.
