Ask HN: Who is meeting up? (December 2012)

68 points| whoishiring | 13 years ago | reply

Let's try to build a list of all Hacker News meet up groups and organize new groups for cities that don't have one yet.

Please post the name of your city and a link to your group.

San Francisco

The first meetup a couple of days ago was successful- thanks Dan for organizing it and Coderwall for hosting. Hope to see more of these.

We really enjoyed having everyone out. We'll be having these bi-monthly from now on, so expect another in late january.

I'll also try to do other nice things for members. For instance, we will have a free lottery for an after-hours secret showing of the movie "Hackers" at The Roxie.

I'm sure Capital Factory can host this. Also, get in touch with Josh Baer--he writes the Austin StartupDigest every Sunday, and it goes out Monday morning. It lists all the tech-related events in Austin and it's what many people in Austin read to find events. If you're not on it, definitely subscribe as well: http://austin.startupdigest.com/

If you need help with intros for event space, etc., let me know. Contact info in my profile.

Vancouver*

* - New group! Let's see whether there are enough of us to start a regular meetup.

Do you think it would be reasonable to make this a joint Victoria/Vancouver group? Ferry times might make it a non-starter, but thought I should float it out there...

I was ecstatic when I saw the link, then my heart drooped after clicking and seeing only 4 hackers were part of the group :(.

Great idea. Would love one in Boston/Cambridge, anybody else interested?
[+] co_pl_te|13 years ago|reply
I would also be interested in a Boston/Cambridge meet up. There was talk about this a few weeks back. Would love to see this happen.

I'll be in Boston Dec 7th -> Jan 25th.

I'd be interested!

[+] jchrisa|13 years ago|reply
Talk to @CopenhagenJS they are well connected in the meetup scene.
[+] mercurial|13 years ago|reply
I'd be up for Aarhus if anybody is in the area.

Good to hear there's a HN meetup in Toronto! Any idea why it's set up as a private group? All the other HN meetup groups I checked on this page are public.

DC - http://meetup.hackernewsdc.org/

It seems like it is literally always run when I'm out of town, but I've heard nothing but greatness abounds.

[+] dannyr|13 years ago|reply
It sucks there's nothing scheduled. I'm in town until Tuesday, visiting from SF. It would have been nice to meet other HNers in DC.

Are there any in NYC? If not, does anyone want to start one?
[+] seankean|13 years ago|reply
Here is the Hacker News Meetup Everywhere for NYC: http://www.meetup.com/Hacker-News/New-York-NY/

It's rather empty but I'd like to get it going - please help: join and let's set a date and place!! I just got back from Seattle where the hacker news meetup is a big event - let's do the same in NYC!

[+] lhh|13 years ago|reply
I'd be interested in getting one going.

I'm also attending TEDx Silicon Alley on Monday (http://www.ted.com/tedx/events/4880). If anyone else is going I'd love to hear from you.

In either case, my email is in my profile.
