Vienna is a very nice city to live in. Yet, it is not exactly a technology hub, so probably not a destination of preference for the HN crowd.

  Technology sector in Austria in general is booming, coming here as a Canadian fresh out of school, after under 6 months of German schooling I was able to land two job offers in under a week. I'm in Linz which is an industry city but from what I've heard it's mostly the same all over.

  Hey, I am the original developer of ZeroMQ and I happen to live in Bratislava. If you are organising meet-ups in Vienna and want me to give a talk or something, just shout.

  What would you suggest for a general developer meetup? I'm in Linz and was thinking about coming up and seeing Metalab and going to a developer meetup. Any good events coming up you would recommend?

      Heh, php and flash is what I use for my hobby gamedev. I'm a Java developer. (Hides from the Java and Flash hate). I've worked with js before, html5 is definitely interesting, I'll have to come to a meetup and let you lure me to the cool side.
