I had an idea I wanted to post before I forget.

Often, people have questions about a toy and/or toys that they are considering. How about a database of contributors that have that particular item with a system that can cross-reference multiple items. For example, I could use it to look up all contributors that have the Njoy Pure wand and the Nobessence Smooth S shape so that I can ask them specific questions. Not sure how many people would use such a tool.

This is an awesome idea. (But what other questions could you possibly have? I already put up a video )!

The comparison thought you are having Kindred, is one of the suggestions I had for the EdenToy club.

For me, I like to compare things!!!! It's what sells me on an item.

Hello everybody, and welcome to the meeting! I'm going to wait a few more minutes to let any last minute stragglers come in, and then we'll get started. How's everybody doing tonight?

Not too badly. I'm very much looking forward to this weekend, as my husband and I are going out of town. We're leaving tonight, and I'll be working a short day tomorrow from where we're staying.

Sounds like fun. I think I may have to spend time with 3 teens and a preteen tomorrow or Sat.Yippee!!

Have a good trip!

I'm trying to find a reliable car at a reasonable price, and it's taking longer than I had expected it to. So many nuances! So my weekend will probably be full of that.

Going any place fun? Or just getting away for the holiday weekend?

Looks like everybody disappeared again, lol.

I have a few things to bring up tonight, but first I want to ask if anybody has anything they want to bring up.

Just getting away as a late Valentine's Day thing. The fun will be spending the weekend alone and away from people.

Apart from Kindred's earlier suggestion, I'm not sitting on any huge ideas.

We're making some changes with the meetings, and I wanted this group to be the first to know.

The Holiday Party Planning meetings are going to be going away. Since most of the meetings seem to focus on picking a date, we think we can get just as much of a response with a series of polls to get your opinions rather than trying to get everybody to show up at the meetings since they've never been wildly popular.

The polls would still give you options for helping to decide the dates of parties, what to celebrate, and a place to voice an opinion for things you might like to see in the parties otherwise (trivia, etc).

This makes plenty of sense.

I was thinking about it some more. It could be set up like the current "My favorite items" is set up. Each reviewer manually enters any toys they have or had. Ten on each product page, there would be an option to see all contributors with that toy, somewhat similar to the gifting option.

That makes sense. It's almost always the same people that show up anyway.

This could be pretty cool. I know I have a wishlist that has everything I have/have had, but it would be really nice to be able to find out who has things I'm comparing (One condition---it has to be updated and edited manually, not an automatic list of "this person has purchased X Y and Z". I'm sure that's how you were envisioning it too, but just thought I'd say that out loud.)
