Anyone in Florida?

Recently moved to Orlando from NYC. Definitely shoot me an invite if you set something up. Even if it's Tampa or wherever I'd probably be down to drive.

If you arent aware, theres a fairly active Orlando devs slack [1] and actually one of the people in that Odevs slack has started a Tampa dev meetup [2] that seems fairly popular

Other than using the HN name, and publicizing on HN, what goes into a "Hacker News" in-person event?

Im in LA should we organize a meetup? How would we do it properly?

If it’s effective, here’s a When2Meet link [1] that should provide a heat map of when most of us on this thread are available. [1] https://www.when2meet.com/?16905460-DWxNb

Filled in my slots, let's do something with this information.Looks like most folks are available on Saturday. Guessing we'd want to be in Santa Monica?

Anyone in the Bay Area interested in a HN Meetup?

If someone created an event "Hacker News Meetup" on meetup.com, I'd go.

The problem is someone has to pay. It's not free.

How about Houston, Texas? Good timing, too, since I may soon need to recruit for a new startup. ⊙⊙

I'd be interested in a Houston meetup!
