Great article! Just reading this finally motivated me enough to create an account here and seriously think about applying for winter 2011. After some reconsideration though, I'm not quite sure I'd be willing to quit my day job just yet. I have a few ideas for startups and one project I've been working on in my spare time that is interesting but nowhere near complete. Would it be worth to apply anyway? Perhaps I could list all the ideas I have or maybe just the best one? I was also thinking about applying to the YCommonApp. But I'd prefer to target my resume to specific companies just because that has worked for me the best in the past. Anyone have advice on what might be a good route to take? YCombinator funding? YCommonApp? Both or neither?
