Photo tagging!
We recently stopped restricting our launches to Tuesday mornings. Check out this great new feature:
Tag people in photos
Group members can now identify people in their Meetup photos and “tag” them. This means that when a group member views a group photo with people in it, they’ll hopefully identify the people in the photo and put names to faces.
Other online-only social networks have similar functionality, but we think that due to our focus on real world face-to-face interaction, this functionality is even more powerful here on Meetup. What better way is there to see who goes to the Meetups and to tie together the online and offline?
You can find this feature by looking at any photo in your Photos section, and clicking on the “Tag this photo” link to the right of the photos. This feature is limited to group members. Those tagged will get an email notification telling them they have been tagged. And of course, they will be able to untag themselves if they desire.
Hope you all have fun with it!
