Social Climbers In The SF Bay Area

Are you a social climber? Do you live in the San Francisco Bay area? If so, you might want to join Urban Diversion or the San Francisco Outdoor Adventure Club.

urbandiversion Ah, that kind of social climbing, you say! Indeed, online social clubs are becoming an increasingly popular platform to form 'face-to-face facilitation for fun' fora.

They even have 'clubhouses'!

This morning I found—Urban activity clubs provide a place to grow, explore and maybe meet—by Reyhan Harmanci, on sfgate.com. In a year-and-a-half, Urban Diversion's membership "has risen from 75 to 260, with 25 to 35 events each month. In August, they plan to launch an East Bay calendar with a new Web portal" according to this article.

Looks like I will have to start a new category in my SNS Meta List for 'Online Social Clubs'.

Happy Sunday!
