Brainstorming

Hey guys! I am very sorry that out first meet UP was a let DOWN! Totally my fault in that I got caught up with my dad and didn't do the last minute work necessary to ensure that those who RSVP'd were going and where they should meet.
I am scheduling this meet up because I am confused, it seems that there is no way on meet up to message with the group unless it is through commenting on a meet up event, which is why I wanted to create the Facebook page so that we could all talk to each other with out there needing to be a meet up scheduled. I see, however, that while there are over 60 members on the meet up group there are only 26 people on the Facebook group.
So I am creating this meet up to ask you guys a few questions, please answer in the comments: 1) Is there a way, on meet up, to message each other that isn't by commenting on a scheduled event?

2. Are you a member of the Facebook group ABQ One2One? If so, have you take advantage of posting on the page? If not, is there a reason why? Are you on Facebook?

3)I would like to set up a monthly meet up where it is an open invitation to get together at a pub and meet each other but that it wouldn't necessarily be hosted by me, it would just be there as available and would be up to those who RSVP'd for that night to get together once they were there. I would post up the meet up but I can not guarantee that I would be available every time to coordinate the meeting. 4)Does anyone have suggestions of where to hold that monthly meet up?
