Ask HN: Does the Seattle Freeze hinder spontaneous networking?
From the blogs I've read, including PG, Silicon Valley's biggest pros is the spontaneous networking and idea sharing. You can eat down at a restaurant and hear and idea float across and all of a sudden have a new start-up partner.
Does the Seattle Freeze hinder this in any way?

From my experience in Seattle, the "Seattle Freeze" might exist in general social situations... but it definitely doesn't seem to in tech/start up circles.
Get to a couple meet ups and you'll love it.
There's plenty of people in Seattle who like to hobnob. The interweb makes it easy to join them, e.g. http://seattle.beerandcode.org/
