The website Dabble operates in Austin, Chicago, Denver, Milwaukee, SF, St Louis, and Minneapolis/St Paul.

If you aren't familiar with Dabble, basically it's a service connecting people who want to learn something with people who can teach it.

I'll be heading to the Intro to Welding class in Chicago this weekend.

This would be fantastic to have in Detroit. I often flirt with the idea of taking classes but I typically don't have the time. Dabble seems to be a cool solution.

Point is, there is a request page to suggest bringing the service to other cities. I already recommended Detroit, and if you're into it, you should, too.

Link to request Dabble:
