When I was visiting Harvard one time before undergraduate college applications, my tour guide mentioned something that stuck with me -- that after a round of auditions for the highly selective a capella groups on campus, the students that were passed over for all the existing groups decided to band together and form a new group. And that that group ended up training more seriously and later that year came in first in some a capella competition.
There's a lot of potential value floating around HN.
Perhaps an informal BarCombinator of sorts could be formed?
(incidentally, we made it past this round, but...)

- wheels 18y agoI've just created a LinkedIn group for Hacker News (unrelated to this thread, but reading it reminded me I was planning on creating it). I'll post the details here and in a new article when it's live. I've also added my LinkedIn profile to my HC profile.
- rms 18y agoThere is already a group with 150 members here: http://www.linkedin.com/search?search=&sortCriteria=3&groupFilter=3426 http://www.linkedin.com/search?search=&sortCriteria=3... Does that link for people? I can't figure out a better way to link to it, it is called "Y Combinator News Group" >The groups directory is not currently open. We are working on creating a searchable directory for all groups. If there are groups you wish to join, you may click on the group logo from the profile of a group member and request to join. Looks like LinkedIn groups are mostly broken. So this is my profile, you can join the group if you click the group link in my profile. http://www.linkedin.com/profile?viewProfile=&key=7886605&trk=tab_pro http://www.linkedin.com/profile?viewProfile=&key=7886605...
- wheels 18y agoHmm, yeah, this seems pretty b0rked. Ok, I'll see if I can dig something up a little more useful.
- wallflower 18y agoGreat LinkedIn profile. Thanks for bringing a smile this morning
- wheels 18y agoI couldn't find the group rms posted at all. There are already a few members that have joined the new one that I created. I created a post here with some possibilities for networking: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=160398 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=160398
