Seems like a good idea to me.
Creative Commons asked if we could help to promote this free culture event they are holding tomorrow in San Francisco: http://creativecommons.org/weblog/entry/42332 .It's not directly directly about Wikimedia-related topics, more about free culture in general, but e.g. Kat Walsh already sent a notice about it to the Wikimedia-SF list a while ago, and previous editions of this series saw quite a bit of Wikimedia involvement. Jay and I discussed it and we think it's OK to re-share the event page on Facebook with the Wikipedia account if it's locally targeted (Facebook does offer city-level targeting in the US). I'm going to do this now targeted with San Francisco, Oakland and Berkeley, and also see it a bit as an experiment - eventually we could offer to do city- or state-targeted posts to organizers of Wikipedia meetups (at least in the US), in addition to the existing https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Geonotice .--
