What online communities exist to help solo travellers meet up?
I've done a few long-termish mostly solo trips now, and you hear about communities like CouchSurfing and Warm Showers (for cyclists). However I also really enjoy staying in hostels. Oddly, there aren't really forum communities on the hostel sites.
It's really quite disappointing when you reach a new hostel only to find it almost empty, when there's a busy fun one down the road.
Are there online resources or communities to find who is going to be at hostel X on a certain date, so you can try and meet up with other travellers?

It is not directly related to your question but the www.hostelworld.com website is pretty good at judging hostels' atmosphere. I just sort the hostels according to rates and choose the one that is not too expensive. It also helps to read some of the reviews themselves.
I chose the hostel that way when I was in Lisbon and I was mainly sitting inside for the whole day talking with the people and barely seeing the city :)
