We all know each other and mostly hang out on twitter to be honest. Try me (@kirkwy), @monkchips, @monadic, @cpswan, @codepope, @leastfixedpoint, ...

Seriously, though, I've not really noticed not being back in a local "tech cluster" on a day-to-day basis these days (except that when I meet people that aren't in the industry they have NO idea what I do; in the valley, everybody has some clue). Mostly we like to know who each other are so we can all drink together. Tech social functions, like ALL social functions here, involve much beer.
