The Meetup API allows developers to use the Topics, Groups and Events hosted and created on Meetup.com in their own applications and mashups. Any Meetup.com member can request an API key and start playing with the API right away.

We're committed to making the information at the core of the service widely available -- while respecting the privacy of our Meetup groups and members. Join the discussion in the Meetup Developers Forum and follow @MeetupAPI on Twitter to keep tabs on our progress.

To get started, browse the online documentation, check out the demos then pick up your api key and get to work using one of our sample clients or your HTTP toolchain of choice.
