  “Someone would move to Miami, find one of them on Twitter, and then join the messaging group to learn about events, make friends, or seek advice. The group quickly outgrew WhatsApp's 256-person capacity, and now communicates on Telegram.” https://www.wired.com/...

  Why is everyone in Miami right now? For Miami Tech Week, which is not a conference or an official event, but a ✨vibe.✨ My story on #MiamiTech for @WIRED https://www.wired.com/...

  Can confirm that the Miami vibe is infectious. You'll simply be happier here. https://www.wired.com/...

  Yesterday's ‘launch’ of #MiamiTechWeek the vibe there made SF & NY feel a bit like Corporate America vs startups. Miami is the blockchain of cities. Authentically diverse, honest and welcoming. No internal lingo or clicks, no layers of forced culture to comply with. https://twitt…

  I went to Miami Tech week and all I got was a sunburn and a $20m seed

  Seeing lots of comparisons with Miami Tech Week and SXSW right now. Worth remembering that SXSW succeeded at turning Austin into a tech hub, but ultimately not in making it a force. I think it will be similar here, but I'm glad to see opportunity decentralizing!
