my my my!! i had no choice but to leave SF this Sept because of my job. was so depressed. no alphabar, no superhappydevhouse, no more moscone conventions to get drunk and pick up freebies at:(, most of all, no laughingsquid! but you are here now in the city! yes i tracked your events when you were around earlier. how awesome. finance and fashion reigns NYC, technology serves as a means to an end (hyper sad)… now please spread out the love and throw more tech fun over here:)

Oh awesome! I've been fantasizing in the back of my head about going bicoastal, but so far it's been nothing more than a dream. I so look forward to hearing how it goes for you and wish you the best of luck.

I have loved reading Laughing Squid ever since I left San Francisco five years ago as a way to maintain some connection to my favorite city. Now what am I supposed to do?

"Scott Beale: San Francisco Edition" will be missed.

Welcome to NYC, an outer borough of New Jersey. You picked a WONDERFUL time of the year to move here. Bring your snow shovel!

I'll miss you Scott and Lori. I guess this will give me another excuse to visit the Big Apple. :-)

Not sure yet, but it would be somewhere in Manhattan.

Think of it more as expanding to NYC, rather than going a way. I'll be back from time to time and Laughing Squid will still have a presence in San Francisco. Instead of a going away party, I'm thinking about having our 15th anniversary party in NYC.

Wow, that's big news Scott. Best of luck to you — show 'em how us left-coasters do it! :)

I'm bummed out! Anyone throwing you a going-away party?

Now you have one more reason to visit NYC.

Scott,

Best wishes for the move to NYC! I've been reading LS for a few years now from Sydney, Australia, and it never ceases to inspire art and culture beyond San Francisco.
