Awesome! email me at nessa@girldevelopit.com when you're ready for the API token and everything. I started looking into it last night and I extracted some data. I'll email you a bit later with some info.

So I am working on the meetup API as well to include it in my maps section. I want to pull in location and location information from our events page onto my map. @zoombear I would need the API token too! Also do you know if I would encounter any problem working with the their REST api using Mapbox? @MengoDB Maybe we should collaborate?

[zoombear]

@arc6789 and @MengoDB ... that sounds like a super cool project. I'll email you the Meetup API ID and token info tomorrow. I wouldn't know if you'd encounter a problem...it might be tricky, who knows? Do you want to do the map on your own personal Mapbox account or should we create a new account for GDISJ?

[arc6789]

It might be a good idea to create a new account for GDISJC. That way anyone can access it too. What if I wanted to transfer a map from my personal account to the GDISJC mapbox account. Would that be easy enough or would it be a hassle?

[MengoDB]

OMG! I forgot to email to you @zoombear. I'm ready for the API token and everything recently. My email is mygao0202@gmail.com. @arc6789 Sounds very cool to cooperate with you. This task is somewhat tricky for me. It will be great to discuss with you!

[arc6789]

@MengoDB Alright... did you want to discuss at the next GDI? Or meetup sometime on the side and work together? I am fine either way! Here's my email anusuyarc89@gmail.com
