Moving to Chicago in January. Man, just hope that we have a warm winter, unlike last year. Take it with a grain of salt. I'm a east coaster born and raised. I only moved to chicago a year and a half ago. Something I noticed about Chicago: I met all of my neighbors within a week of moving in. I had never known my neighbors let alone was able to acknowledge them beyond a nod while on the coast.

If you want to go for a beer sometime after you move in. I would be willing to do that. Also, take a look at the CJUG, we're pretty active. I've heard good things about the Erlang and ruby group. It also seems that the code and cans meetup group is taking off.

I've heard about it. I've experienced Minnesota winters and N. European winter, so it's not new to me.

Sure. I'm michael.o.church at Google's email service.

I'm pretty excited about the move, even if people think I'm nuts for going in the dead of winter.
