wow, this is cool to see someone else submitting this here =] i built this because i didn't like that i couldn't connect with others on hacker news (though i can understand this was probably intentional to prevent spam). i will fix the .edu email requirement eventually, though i originally intended this to be for undergrads on large campuses (such as illinois.edu) so they could easily find each other. if you're on this site and you spot someone else, you know from there that you have at least a few things in common: you most likely read pg's essays, you like to build stuff, you might be a little entrepreneurial, you're interested in programming or ui design. larry and sergey met up because one of them was doing campus tours. i wonder how many start-ups would have been created if the individuals weren't physically too far apart and had a common place to meet up. the colors were inspired by xcode's midnight theme.
