I moved from NYC to Boston a few years ago and have noticed a real surge in both the tech and gaming industries up here. It's hard to say how much of my noticing is because I moved here, but still. There's good stuff going on in Boston.
How is this related to GameSalad? You should probably just publishing this on the tool's forums or generic game dev forums.
