Just scanning meetup I saw a ruby meet up on sat. & 3 or 4 other tech meetups in the next couple of days.

If you think that there are no tech networking events in Chicago, the third largest city in the US and the heart of several high tech industries, that is probably the root cause of your issue.

Well I guess what I am saying is not that they don't exist it's just not many. For example I went to 4 Ruby meetups and Chicago and while fun, they're essentially Dev Bootcamp events where people learn things like writing blocks. The weird thing is, I went to a Ruby meetup in Ann Arbor, and there it was all industry professionals and coders. I tried to find other non ruby meetups, but they're few and far between.
