Ask HN: Just moved to SF, what's the best way to discover local startup scene?

2 points by nnd 11y ago ↗ HN

Hi there,

I'm a hacker, who just moved to SF (The Mission) after traveling around the world for a year. Currently, I work remotely building iOS apps and hack some side projects in my spare time (http://github.com/nderkach)

I know it sounds generic, but I'd like to get out there and meet cool folks who are involved in startups. Frankly, being an outsider to the Bay Area, I'm a bit overwhelmed with a number of meetups and hackathons, and don't know where to start. And hints are appreciated!

Just go to the ones that interest you. meetup.com is a great place to find hack nights, meet friends, and find startups. When I first moved here I went to Ruby meetups, hack nights, dev talks. I quickly realized that everyone here was way smarter than I was and it was awesome. So much to learn.
