Adelaide is too small. Worked at Tomorrow Studios with Dom (Intelligent Software) and took Matthew's (Solve IT) Innovate SA course (which is superb btw).
I worked with Dom from late 2010 to mid 2011 (at Tomorrow Studio too).
I'm thinking of all the people who's names I knew at Tomorrow Studio for anyone who was "pm" (if you had your name on your info I might know if I knew you.. :))
Paul from No Prisoners. I think I might've talked to you about Lua scripting at some point, since I think that's what you might've been doing.
We were the iPhone peeps.
EDIT: Wait, we moved out at the end of July 2010, so I must be thinking of the other programmer who was there. Don't remember his name now.

How do you guys cope with being in Adelaide? I have a sister stranded there, her husband works for some mob doing Moodle work.

OMG that never gets old!!!! Adelaide is Adelaide. It isn't Sydney or Melbourne, but it's not a rural backwater either - quite a lot of interesting stuff happens here.

I think so. Not sure. This officially makes me a terrible brother in law.
As for Adelaide. You guys seem to have more funeral homes than churches. Surely that's a sign.

Melbourne does feel a whole lot more .. enthusiastic shall we say? Still Adelaide has its perks if you have the right networks, and generally a decent salary/cost balance for what that's worth. Happy to grab a drink with any HN'ers that are in/stop by Adelaide btw.
They aren't exactly a startup though - been around quite a while I think.
I was with these guys for a while, who played in an adjacent space: http://www.intelligentsoftware.com.au/
