Speaking of which, anyone need / want added to that?

There's already a syndication bit on lrug.org. Would people appreciate

I think this is a great idea.  However, I've no idea on how to do it.  Best
guesses would be what Martin already suggested and using WWR, or other
social network sites that might already do such a thing.  For example there
are groups on last.fm, facebook and linkedin (off the top of my head, there
might be others).

I have to admit that I have no idea how to do it ourselves.  Can it be done
externally to lrug.org with pipes, friendfeed or some other existing rss
mashy-upy-thingy?  If we need to self-host a solution, can it be done with
the current software (an old version of RadiantCMS, so probably not), or is
there something we can install alongside (one of those planet doo-dahs?)

The only problem I can see is that, like the existing members-and-friends
page, any solution will probably suffer from being manually maintained.
But, something is better than nothing, so... anyone that has any ideas or
experience, speak up and we can see what we can do.
