Cleveland has a very successful young professional organization called The Cleveland Professional 20 / 30 Club.  This group is a non-profit organization created to retain Young Professionals in Greater Cleveland by providing events focused on both personal and professional development.  I have been a member for a few years and recently joined the technology committee to help re-design and rebuild their website from the ground up. 

This group is setting out on an ambitious effort to build not just a website that looks better, instead, we are building an open source platform that will provide the necessary infrastructure for any professional organization to manage membership, schedule events, and build a community.  

The platform will provide integration into all known social software providers (Flickr, Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, etc) as well as other organizations leveraging this open source platform.  The project blog can be found here.
