Should anyone have the time, check out the live "StarParties" Google+ hangouts by Pamela Gay and Fraser Cain. They and other astronomers hang out and share information and talk about astronomy. I think our community would benefit from these type of video events because we could share techniques and converse in a more human way than we otherwise could with just a chat. There are lots of people who do not have biology backgrounds that could benefit from these live interactions - more so than with this google group or irc.
