We've gotten a number of requests for mentors in NYC (and Boston) but no mentors yet. Please holler at us if you're on the east coast.

There's something to be said about coworking spaces and working remote from a cafe. We crave the company of other people.
IRC and Freenode are great...if you're already in tech. About every third freelance client I speak with needs help with simple stuff - understanding how to get a host. Understanding how to point DNS to a service like Squarespace. They don't have that one tech friend to help them or know where to ask for help, despite the constant and saturated availability of chat rooms/forums.
So while we'll provide dev-to-dev mentoring, I really hope we reach this audience too.
