What new feature would you like to see on Meetup, and why?

Make the calendar a main function tab again

The calendar is a huge part of everyones meetup groups. Why is it a secondary function? We should be able to access it from every page at all times.

        Yes, this is needed as unfortunately most of our Members seem to be challenged to know how to look at the Calendar monthly view, I know it seems simple enough, but lots don't seem to know how to do this by themselves!!

        ok, what's the secret to see a master calendar for a particular city? If I travel and want to attend a local meetup, I can't see what's going on that night!

        my calendar doesn't show up... is it because of my browser?

        HOW is it that some people say they're able to see the calendar function as the main item on the screen? I want that (like I used to have it before it was "improved")!! The latest problem with this design is that the days where there are a lot of group activities have a little "MORE" link you have to click to open them up. Since it is the same color as the other links, it is basically hidden if you're just skimming through the list of activities. I loved the (much) older design, where your calendar was one long list you could scroll through, and you didn't have to do so much clicking to see events later in the month.

        anyone has any idea why my i can not view my calender. I see an empty frame?

        Funny, I was coming here to suggest this idea too! I agree. I work mostly on a netbook. I have to scroll down to access the calender on the sidebar because its so far down the page. It should really be at the very top since its the most important place on the site. As it is now, Its hidden half way down the page, jumbled up with other information. Very annoying.

        This is the number 1 annoyance of the site.

        It NEEDS to be in the top horizontal menu, where people expect it to be.

        Paul .. I just noticed it BURIED there ... what a silly place to put it!
