Last night I went to a PHP Meetup meeting downtown at Corner Coffee. My boss, a co-worker, and some other folks showed up (oddly enough the meeting organizer didn't show up... and neither did the member that has ownership in the shop). We had a decent time. Since there was no direction, we just talked most of the time.
One of the guys I talked to at the meeting happened to start up a company called DVD Direct (cant find the website), and they are kinda like a cross between netflix and blockbuster. They setup mini stores in places you frequent (your gym, your work, hotels, etc) so its convenient for you. You can then go online and reserve the movie you want, and go pick it up. If you reserve it, its guaranteed to be in. Hence, if the movie is not in, they will not allow you to reserve it online. I think its a pretty cool idea.
