Melbourne, Australia

View on HN

Speaking of Melbourne, how's the weather? Nevermind I'll ask again in 5 minutes when it has changed!

Perth, Australia here.

Perth as well!

Another for Perth

Hey, me too!

me three

me also and am looking for a startup co-founder.

Hacking in scheme on a web- data- related prototype as outlined on quantblog.wordpress.com.

Count me in as #5.

Frequent reader, less frequent poster and #6 from Melbourne (Geelong to be exact!)

Just got back from Melbourne, (Toronto, ON), loved it and will return, and I just kept thinking 'If there was a start-up culture in Melbourne, I'd move there in 2 seconds!' - and now there are 6 responding to the thread, :)

'If there was a start-up culture in Melbourne, I'd move there in 2 seconds!'

Whilst it's not huge, it's certainly growing. Silicon Beach is a community pushing technology innovation in Melbourne (and the rest of Australia). You can read a little more about it here: http://melbourne.siliconbeachaustralia.org/about-2/ and here: http://www.rosshill.com.au/article/silicon-beach-melbourne/

Count me in as well. Good to see some people here I know on Twitter, but wasn't aware of on HN.

Melbourne / Geelong here too! I was impressed when I put the SB blog post above together too. There is a nice range of events happening, and a good amount of code happening too :)

I am surprised to see such a strong Melbournian contingent. Maybe the rain keeps you indoors, nothing to do but program? ;)

Sydney here, although going back to Tokyo for summer. (Reference for Melbourne residents: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Summer)

Brisbane, Australia.

I'm in SF, but my sister lives on the Bellarine Peninsula. I've spent about 6 weeks in Australia and love it. If anyone has info about startups hiring in Melbourne or Geelong I'd love to hear about them.

You're in SF and you want to move to Melbourne for a startup? That's the inverse of what I always hear about... ;)

I've been here doing startup type work for ages. Wouldn't mind spending some time down under.

Ditto.
