Gangplank is an awesome place for creativity, knowledge sharing and the spirit of entrepreneurship. I go there as often as possible. They are creating some amazing things to expand their support of the community. Give them a few more months when the classrooms and other things open up!
That said, I'm lucky to be there about twice a month, to a lunch time "brown bag" presentation or another event. I have been spending most of my free time on the team running the Phoenix Scrum User group (http://phxsug.org) and helping with the Ignite Phoenix (http://ignitephoenix.com) events. Some amazing people in those communities! Metro Phoenix is really cranking with energy these days!
