- wil421 13y agoAwesome. Fellow Atlanta native I think this is really great, I hope you can start a trend here. I would love to be able to see all the start ups in my city.
- smedawar 13y agoWe hope so too! Thanks for the support!
- roberjo 13y agoThis should link directly to http://atlantatechvillage.com/ http://atlantatechvillage.com/. Edit: Perhaps it should at least include the companies listed there for starters. =D
- devilshaircut 13y agoThere are a lot of startups not based out of ATV. Anyhow - signing up for this. Excited to see what could come of it.
- smedawar 13y agoThanks! Our goal is to profile all the startups in the community. Let everyone know that we'd love to profile their startup.
- devilshaircut 13y agoI'll send you some info via your website about my startup. Thanks again for setting this up. Very cool.
- smedawar 13y agoPerfect. Let's connect soon.
- smedawar 13y agoThanks roberjo! We're hoping to connect with all the key players in the area and get every startup in the Atlanta area profiled. Any tips like this are greatly appreciated!
- rubyrescue 13y agorelated - what's up with atlanta tech village during that building remodel? i drive by there all the time and it looks uninhabitable.
- atom-morgan 13y agoI've been in there a few times over the past few months. From what I've seen, they've been going floor by floor so while parts may look uninhabitable, everything else was coming along just fine.
- dpeck 13y agoits like a post-apocalyptic startup world, where devs are squatting in the remnants of old lawyer offices. Its kind of awesome, but I imagine its not the most stable place to get work done at the moment.
- mhluongo 13y agoLol. I work there. They are, in fact, going floor by floor. The finished floors are really nice. We've moved floors twice since I started in August, but are finally settled in in a corner office, and it's great. The first floor is about done now, and I believe the Octane will be opening soon.
- matthewmcg 13y agoI like the tags for region. Will you also allow tagging for university/accelerator affiliation?
- smedawar 13y agoDefinitely! We're in the process of partnering with accelerators and incubators across the country. For some, we'll include a tag, and others, we'll create a sub-site. If you have any accelerators or incubators you'd like us to partner with, please reach out via our contact form or twitter.
- nburger 13y agoCongratulations on the launch! Also an Atlanta native and signed up!
- smedawar 13y agoThanks! Spread the startup news!
- samelawrence 13y agoATL, hold it down.
- smedawar 13y agoAll day, every day.
- swillis16 13y agoA mention of http://www.hypepotamus.com/ http://www.hypepotamus.com/ might be useful.
- j-hernandez 13y agoSigning up for this as well. Really great to see all the hard work and talent coming out of Atlanta. Shout out to fellow Atlanta devs
- smedawar 13y agoThanks for the support!
- eranation 13y agoIt would be nice to add a link to a crunchbase profile and add a startup I know in a more WIKI way... you need all startups in Atlanta to be aware of this page... there are quite a few, so you should make it as easy as possible to add a startup even if you don't work there. Let the WIKI gnomes do the work :)
- smedawar 13y agoThanks for the feedback eranation! Our goal is to be less of a repository and more of a showcase, where startups are featured once a week. We find that lists of startups are rarely sifted through. Learning about one startup a week allows for a deeper knowledge of the startups in each community. I kept a note of your feedback though and we'll keep an eye on other users feedback as well. We're a startup too and love hearing what everyone has to say. If I see a trend towards what you're asking, we may just implement a more WIKI approach.
- apinstein 13y agoJust submitted -- fyi you have a bug in the form, if there's an error, it isn't displayed (Safari 7 anyway). I had to look at the XHR's in the console to see what error was being returned from the server :)
- smedawar 13y agoVery sorry about that. I'll take a look at our error log and see if we can fix. Was it the contact or the application form?
- rco8786 13y agoAs an Atlanta native who might want to end up back there someday, this is great to see!
- smedawar 13y agoGreat city! Great startup community! The support has been amazing. :)
- josephjrobison 13y agoQuick suggestion - for both semantics and SEO best practices, make the cities a subfolder instead of subdomain Did you consider started.in/atlanta?
- smedawar 13y agoI'm completely with you! This change is at the top of our list. Thank you for taking the time to send that note!
- nachiketkumar 13y agoSigned up! Great to see all the opportunities here for startups- encouraging for folks like me who want to stay on here.
