Now that this Reddit Island Project has surfaced and gained some support, I actually think that an island for a larger group might be more practical. A group the size of YCombinator with the resources of YCombinator just might be able to do this. If we expand the project to include all YCombinator startups and contributors to HN, there should be enough people so that each person would only have to pay a rather small sum. I know that I am putting the cart before the horse here, but with a somewhat reasonable goal of 10M, we could probably purchase our island within a few years. Just to continue with the brainstorming, it would be even more practical to have an "island" on land. We could purchase about 50 acres worth of some backcountry land in the US and develop it into a place for some sort of entrepreneurial or internet-centered facility.
