What about using it like a "Meetup" beacon
I'm sitting at xxx location having a beer, wishing for Ingress folk to drop in... I create a quick event for NOW and share the location. Even if you didn't know me, (or maybe particularly if you didn't know me lol) if you were in the area and saw the event pop up, would you be likely to drop in, say hi, meet a new Ingress friend? If you were not already part of the Ingress community - you were a new player and curious about the people who play the game - would you be brave enough to come on in and says hi? If it were a safe, public spot? Curious if I could start using that approach to meet some of the new players who don't tend to respond in comms...
