While I'm not all-that-enamored with the various "Social Media" formats that keep springing up (if I want to be 'social' I go visit friends or call them) this one has some potential for those of us who would like to get out to real-world events now and then but have encountered the old problem of locating them in sufficient time or in places we might be visiting for work or pleasure.
As reported on AvWeb there's a new, primarily GA-oriented, database and contact site called SocialFlight. Read the article here:

If it works it could be a great way to find events to attend, or perhaps even let sim enthusiasts who have a greater interest in aviation find places where there's a reason to meet for coffee. The fact that the FAA sees merit in posting their public information events lends it some credence and from what I have seen so far, the layout and interface are pretty slick.

Registration is simple and so far you don't have to put up with any of the intrusiveness or silliness of sites like FB.
