Hacker News Cologne

A regular meetup for readers of the awesome Hacker News ( http://news.ycombinator.com), as well as for people just interested in hacking, software, tech startups and entrepreneurship. Come along to meet your online friends and frenemies in person, catch up with the usual suspects and meet new people. It's informal and a sweet opportunity to pitch your projects, get some feedback and possibly find that missing co-founder.
