I've been to the last two meetups and they've been a lot of fun! Great people and great conversation. Good mix of tech / biz / misc. If I remember correctly, the HN group (10-15 people) ended up staying there 3-4 hours both times (until the coffee shop owner wanted to close for the night!).

I moved to SF from SD in late 05 and there wasn't much of a startup scene outside of biology or wireless hardware. Has that changed much since? Any YC alum down there?

SD is no SF, but I think you'll find the SD HN meetup to your liking if you're already hanging out here on HN. Come on by!

Thanks for the invite - I'm still up here in SF, just curious about what's going on in my hometown. Cruising through the member list, I only found one startup:

Everyone else looks like CS students or researchers, is that right?

It's somewhere around a 30/45/25% split of students/professionals/business owners.

And a good number of the first two groups are in the process of moving to the 3rd.

San Diego isn't too bad as far as general hacker stuff. We have a Ruby user group that meets at UCSD, an agile/extreme programming group, and a Django user group. Not too bad.

Sounds interesting from a technical perspective. What about Lean Startups and other entrepreneurial stuff?
