2008
One of the later announcements in the MAX Day 2 keynote was the launch of http://groups.adobe.com.
At first I thought it was simply a directory of all of the Adobe usergroups around the world, but it's more than that. In addition to giving each user group a blog and a place to list upcoming events, individuals can sign up and create a profile. Once you've established a profile, you can then associate yourself with one or more user groups, event groups, and other individuals within the community.
As far as I can tell, it's not quite as fully-featured as the ColdFusion Community social networking site, but it's cool that Adobe has decided to put this out there as a means of encouraging networking and collaboration. I've already set up a bare-bones profile there (username: bcswartz).
Not sure what I'm going to do with it or how much I'm going to use it, but I'm there.
