This poll will determine if the meet-up will be held in Boston or Chicago. Unfortunately, I have removed New York from the list. After some research, we found that the cost (especially flights) would be too expensive. I apologize to any bloggers in NY who were rooting for their city.
Before you vote: Keep in mind that the meet-up is tentatively planned for June 2009 so weather should not be an issue.
The poll will be closing on Thursday, September 11th. That should give you and the rest of the bloggers more than enough time to pick the city you prefer. After 5 p.m. on Sept. 11 I will not accept any more votes. If you didn’t vote, I’ll assume that you didn’t care which city was chosen. There will be no votes taken by email, Twitter, or comment on this post. You must use the poll.

I’m biased and voted Chicago. But, there’s also good reason. It’s the center of our fine nation. And in my humble opinion, the center of the universe. Easy to get to from all coasts. Yay for the meet-up.

Done! It turns out a mid-June flight from the west coast to Boston is slightly cheaper than one to Chicago, strangely enough.

I voted!! I would love to choose Chicago but Boston is so much cheaper from NY. Flights to chicago are also very expensive, at least from NY.

Damn, I was rooting for NYC. Eh, maybe I can make it to the second one if this becomes an annual event.

Got my fingers crossed for Chicago.

Is that Boston, Nunavut, Canada on the map? If you convene in Nunavut I’m coming for sure.

I actually would have loved to meet everyone, but with a west coast option out, flying east is just too expensive

i voted for my old northeastern roots but too bad there wasn’t a southern option.
i’m sure there will be, though, sometime in the distant future.

I didn’t vote, but that’s because I don’t care which city it is. I’d love to visit either!
