#23This is exciting -- I recently moved to Baltimore from Chicago, where there is a thriving startup and hacker culture (see ORD Camp, for example). Good to see that with this and events like Ignite and Node there is a lot going on for geeks in Charm City. Are any Baltimore Pythonistas interested in starting a Python users group in the city? I know there is one in the suburbs but I for one would rather have one where I…

Come swing by the Node one of these Thursdays, we're normally open at 7:30pm and in there working all sorts of projects until we head over to Joe^2 for drinks. We love company :)
