Title: I have an Idea!
Post by: 2ltAlexD on April 07, 2008, 03:21:44 PM
Hi there everyone! I have an idea and I want your input. I thought it would be fun to create a social network for all CAP members worldwide. I've started making it at capunited.ning.com. If anyone wants to help, feel free to email me and I'll make you admin. If it's a bad idea, please let me know, because I'm still a rookie in CAP. Thanks!

Well if it is, we need to be careful of the set up.  Don't want to start talking to someone and then find out that they're an older cadet.   ;D

Would this serve the same type of purpose as, say, a Civil Air Patrol group on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=2204674631)?

I think we need to convince the people in charge of togetherweserved.com to create a CAP site. They just finished the Air Force and Army, haven't heard anything about a USCG site in the works, so maybe if we jump on the bus before they do ours would go up first.  ;D

A dating site won't work.  I've been in CAP for a long time and attractive women in CAP are about as rare as English-speaking taxpayers in Miami.

Not true. I know at least two (one who frequents CAPTalk.net) ;D

I met my wife in CAP.  There are a lot of "CAP Couples."  Lt Col Lee and his wife are both CAP members (both were cadets), there was a guy at encampment WIWAC who ended up marrying one of the other senior members at the encampment. 

I would be worried about the ad's descriptions and taglines...
