+1 for Minneapolis i live here and love this city, lived in other cities with better tech scenes, but imo this town has alot to offer. yellowblkpk i'm assuming you live in the twin cities too, do we have good meetups tailored to an HN like community here? i haven't found anything good yet.

Check out MinneBar (http://minnebar.org/ http://minnebar.org/) and the other stuff organized on that website. Plus there are a ton of user groups, Ruby (RUM), Groovy (GUM), Python (PyMNtos), Wordpress, PHP, ObjC, Flash, .NET, JS, Startup ones, and more, lots more. If you are so inclined, RUM & MinneBar/Demo are great places to start networking. In fact, FanChatter, a 2009 YCombinator startup if from Minneapolis and Luke Francl helps organize the MinneBar/Demo stuff. We are here, come find us:) I organize PyMNtos

+1 for MinneBar (one of the largest BarCamps in the world) and RUM. These events helped change my career.
