Does Voulez Bar have a table for 10? - I suggest the terrace on top of "Pizza y Espuma". It's across the street from Voulez Bar and could accommodate a larger group.

This is a good idea, if it gets too busy at Voulez we can go across the street. Although I'm hesitant to change at the last minute since many people may not see it. Lets try Voulez first and use head there as a backup.

Cool, I'll try to make it.

Also – there's an Open House at Cowork Central this Wednesday, so feel free to join us: http://eventioz.com/events/open-house-jelly

Would any on you guys care to tell a little about the Buenos Aires dev/founder experience? Never been to Argentina but it seems like something interesting is building up there...

It does seem like something is brewing here. I think it got popular with Tim Ferriss' The Four Hour Work Week where he talks about it...lots of founders came down here. It's easier to bootstrap a web business because:

1. costs are much lower here 2. earning in dollars and spending in pesos means your money goes a long way (geo-arbitrage)

It's by no means huge yet, but there is a band of renegade expat coder/entrepreneurs I've met up with. A sampling:

How about visas etc? Do you need to leave every few months to renew your visa?

Yeah the Ferry is full of foreigners doing the Uruguay trip to renew their visa for another 3 months.

I learned recently though that the fine for overstaying your visa is almost the same as the Uruguay trip if you stay a few nights. The fine is (around 300 pesos or $80 US) no matter how long you stay so since I've already been to Uruguay once I'll probably just overstay it. At least is what I'm told, I'll find out if it's true soon :)

I believe so, but all you have to do is take a $30 ferry out to Uruguay (not a terribly torturous procedure in itself!).

How large is the tech scene down there? I've been wanting to move but only to a hacker friendly city (Sadly NYC is mediocre). Anyone know of some local websites for developers?

Just found out about this. I'll be there too +1. Andrew - I'll drop you an email just so you have it.
