Yup - YCombinator is simply busy. YNotCombinator is not an anti-group - it's a pro group - simply another channel to communicate your idea, and hopefully find an angel. Some submitters don't even have blogs - so I thought... YNot.
Boston already has some great stuff. MIT enterprise forum, 40 colleges and Universities - pick the talks happening at Business schools. Plenty of startupaholics there. Meetup.com can be lame for this stuff, or good. I like craigslist.
- ericb 19y agoAppreciate the tips--good stuff. Thanks! I'll keep an eye on what you do with the site. The angels tab is a 404 at the moment, fyi.

- Prrometheus 19y ago>simply another channel to communicate your idea I thought that one of YCombinator's key values was picking good people and teams, not good ideas.
- hendler 19y agoThat's a good point actually. I'm just becoming familiar with YCombinator, and not questioning the selection process. I think this community and the selection process is working pretty well. Hoping communicating through YNotCombinator can show that I am a "good person" and help me attract a good team. Since my stuff is pretty far along, I'm at the stage where the idea, and proof of concept are fairly mature, and I need the team and attention.
