Readers of this group may like to hear about this new free (non-spamming) UK-based web service
SharedInterests is a website service that lets people & clubs sharing similar interests find and get in touch with each other.
Doing just what it says -
Membership is free and users can suggest their own clubs or specialised interests if they are not already on the site. Members' contact information is safeguarded and can be made extra secure by using a nickname.
You set your personal details that others see about you in the "Edit My Details" section. Here you may post up a picture or fully protect your identity by choosing to use a nickname.
If you cannot find your particular interest, then please click the "Suggest an Interest" link. Similarly, you may also "Suggest a Club" that you would like to see mentioned on the site.
This is an excellent way of finding like-minded individuals and organisations in your own neighbourhood.
