Have you tried http://aberlug.org.uk/ or https://opentechcalendar.co.uk/group/ or http://www.meetup.com/Aberdeen-Python-Meetup?

(not having a go, I have the same problem (sometimes) in Australia)

(Disclaimer: I'm cofounder)

I'd recommend also giving http://www.startuptravels.com/ a go, we're not a huge crowd yet, but we've got a few entrepreneurs in Australia, and the responsiveness and willingness to meet new people amongst our users has been overwhelmingly positive so far.

No one near me. Can I register as a non-startup tech?

Edit: Ah, I don't use LinkedIn.

@voltagex_ Definitely. We believe that entrepreneurial spirit is more a state of mind, than what you might be doing on a daily basis.

Edit: Ah, bummer. I believe that's a +1 for native signup! :) Also, which city are you living in?

Native / StackExchange / GitHub / Google might hit the other part of your target market.

I'm in Canberra.

Thanks! Aberlug seems dead (I've visited the IRC channel and it seems pretty inactive). I didn't know about the two other sites, so thanks for the leads.
