Anyone here from the area? There is a strong Bitcoin presence in NH but does not seem to be much activity in Boston. We should change that! Anyone in the area care to help?

Unfortunately I've seen those pages... where the hell are all the tech geeks in Boston interested in Bitcoin?

What part of NH? I'm in Maine about 10 minutes from Dover, 15 from Portsmouth. Did you check this Manchester meetup thread?

Thanks Crazyates. Yup I know those guys. There's a greater number of visible Bitcoiners in NH than in Boston. I just don't get why. I think the area demands some Bitcoin saturation. Roger Ver seemed to have some success with tech groups in Japan, there are many such groups in Boston. I sent messages to the Bitbills guys but have yet to hear back.

A lot of us escaped from Boston and places like it and have no desire to go back.

I've discussed this with a few NH bitcoiners and we're planning to bring this on the road. We'd like to do meetups in Boston/Cambridge, Portsmouth, Nashua, and perhaps Maine and Burlington, VT. We just came back from a great meetup in Montreal. I'll start organizing this some more this week, but I'd love to hear from anyone who has ideas.

Hi teamhugs! Let's put Boston on the Bitcoin map! We just have to get the word out.

Can the few boston-area bitcoiners crash an event of the NH group?

Certainly, all bitcoiners are welcome! Eventually, though, I'd like to see a huge Boston group pulling people in from MIT, Harvard and all the tech companies. Our meetup is planning on going to a great Brazilian-style cafe in NH that accepts Bitcoin in one of the coming weeks. Most of the scheduling action happens on FB, so if you're on Facebook, PM me and I'll add you to the group. If not, we'll post everything on the NH meetup thread here on the forum.

thebaron, would you be interested in coming to a meetup in Manch? Do you know any other bitcoiners in the Keene area? If there's some interest, we'd be happy to do a meetup in Keene.

Well, there's the Free Talk Live crew and Mandrik. I'd be interested in going. Don't know how many would show up, though.

We will be meeting at Strange Brew Tavern in Manchester NH at 6:30pm on Sunday September 23rd. This is not expected to be a large meetup, so if you only plan to attend one NH meetup this is not the one you want to attend. However we have consistently had 15 to 20 or so attend so maybe 10 to 15 this Sunday. Again the details. Shire Bitcoin meetup #12 Sunday, September 23rd at 6:30pm Strange Brew Tavern http://www.strangebrewtavern.net/88 Market St. Manchester NH If you would like my number for a contact please PM me. That way, if you have trouble finding us you can call me. Edit: Must be 21 to attend. I don't like this rule and you can PM me to complain, we'll try to move future events to more friendly places if you alert me that this is an issue.

How was this meetup? I missed it because I was sitting at wonderful Logan Airport enjoying TSA feeling me up for fun and profit.

About 12 people showed. We had fun. It ended early. We have plans in the works to go to Newcastle NH. There you will find the pao cafe that accepts bitcoins. News forthcoming... http://www.thepaocafe.com/

Anyone in the boston area up for a meetup this weekend? Even if it's three of us sitting at a table, it counts, right?
