My favorite thing about this is that it's not focusing on a specific technology. I'm pretty involved with the Python group here in Pittsburgh, but what I really love is doing stuff, not necessarily getting together and talking or sitting while someone else talks. It seems wrong to me somehow to make a particular technology the focus of a group. They're tools! And, honestly, they're pretty similar tools--Python, Ruby, JavaScript, etc. It'd be like if carpenters had Hammer user groups and Mallet user groups and Maul user groups. Can we just build some shit, please?
