I Would be down to do a HN meetup as well. I had no idea about the ruby meeting... which is awesome.

I know at least 2-3 people which might come to either/both depending on timing/schedules.

Anyone have a good idea for organizing this? Not to re-invent the 'meetup.com' wheel, but perhaps we could create a mini "HN Fans Meetup" web app, that would benefit not only people in Indy but also any other state that isnt CA or MA..

Edit: I live near Broad Ripple, so pretty much anywhere that isnt Greenwood or Westfield is game. Even then, I'll probably come. :)

Wow. Awesome thread. This is really encouraging to read given that I also thought I was all alone out here in Indiana. I gotta about one year left to get my degree at IUPUI, which honestly just feels like a waste of time and money, but would loved to involved in something local like this. Maybe we can start a news-letter or something for starters? I dunno, you tell me, just lemme in. BTW, I'm in Fishers. =/

I'm also near Broad Ripple. Was a YC interviewee and now a graduate student in Bloomington.
