It's all about finding your friends in the community -- on the web. Social networking sites join people in all types of settings. Most of our contemporaries are familiar with sites such as Facebook or Myspace, but it doesn't end there. Stay at home mom of the Venetian Isles community near Kendall found a way to "meetup." They recently created a meeting group on the website: http://www.meetup.com/ "the world's largest community of local Meetups, groups and clubs."
This website is all about connecting people with common interests. It has a section devoted to Stay at Home Moms who want to meet other stay at home moms in their area.
The moms from Venetian Isles don't have many members yet. So far it's only Giselle, Andriana, and Ileana, but the group, seems to me, will find its way to popularity among the other moms in the community.
"Meet nearby Stay at Home Moms! Come to a local Stay at Home Moms Meetup for friendship and reassurance, parenting and career advice, stories and fun. Lets get together to start meeting other neighbors and families in our community. We'll meet for Tea, cooking recipes exchange and tips, scrapbooking tips, playdates for the kids, picnics and much more. Fun activities for moms, families and kids. Membership Fees of $5/yearly are required for meeting expenses and group's website maintenance," says their group's page.

Thumbs up for the local stay at home moms. It sure would have been fun to have a community like this one when I was a kid.
