Scott Heiferman notified the Meetup community today that eBay has invested in a new round of funding at Meetup, alongside Allen and Co, Omidyar Network, Esther Dyson, Draper Fisher Jurvetson and Senator Bill Bradley.  Business Week broke the story.

Meetup is one of my favorite companies.  I was (am) a member of the NY Tech Meetup, which I’ve taken as a model for the Istanbul NEG.

Congratulations, Scott.
