Need Gamers   Is a brand new blog.  The game at Need Gamers is trying to build a community where  gamers can easily find local groups to play with.   Why do I like the their approach.   Well, it is pretty simple they are creating an online data base that you can search.   I like that because you can be out of town and find a game.

 

It is really brand new so they are still working through things, but I anticipate a promising future.
