List is here: http://123.writeboard.com/wtbsn341igep2zvx

Pwd: Second full word of invitation e-mail and sender first name. lcase/nospace

EDIT: See cmer's post below. The above writeboard is becoming difficult to maintain. New list is here: http://thinfi.com/7ir (same password)

Concurrency problems and formatting errors make this list very hard to use IMO. At the moment, the formatting is completely broken.

I have made a password-protected Google Doc spreadsheet. I think it's a better choice than Writeboard since it supports multiple users and there's no risk of breaking somebody else's entry.

Here's the link:

Let me know if you think this is a good idea or not.

Er, whose idea was it to write: "Hey Startups in private beta: Want some awesome beta-testers? Invite some emails in the list below!"

I don't recall consenting to anyone using my email address to spam me about their website...

EDIT: It's gone now.

yeah that shocked me a bit. that's why I created the whiteboard and wanted to admin it a bit - but I guess the crowd has policed it now :)

i've also added a note to the whiteboard about adding/using e-mail addresses.

Certainly is.

EDIT: Imagine if there was a sharing option where each new person could only edit one new row. They can't edit the headers or alter the arrangement, but they have a saved, protected slot.

Isn't that just Google forms? You submit the form and then it pushes it into a spreadsheet.

I'm trying to catch up copying the info from the original document. If you already entered your information in Writeboard, I'd appreciate if you could help me and copy it to the new spreadsheet.

Thanks!

Much better.

Done. See you all there.* Thanks, Cmer *Looking for a ride from/to Boston.

Hint: sender first name is inside the sender's email address, not the name that appears in the email client.

Does anybody know exactly where this is being held? I am debating vs. flying or driving (from Boston), and possibly staying overnight.

If anyone else is coming from Boston, let me know, maybe a carpool would be more efficient (we can take my car).

I don't believe they have released this information yet.

Good idea. After the list is a bit more populated, I'm going to send an email to all of the Boston folks.

Snikolci, I'm coming from Maine, via Boston. Please ping me, too.

Brk, I'm coming from Maine, via Boston. I'm up for carpooling.

I am creating a twitter list. https://twitter.com/#!/danest/ycnyc ping me to add you to it/follow it. Currently adding people from the documents

Poll: Your YCNYC application response?

I added an "elevator pitch" column, would be great if everybody filled it out. Makes it easier to know what everybody's doing.

Does it mean anything to have received an invite at this point? Its unclear to me if everyone who requested an invite received one.

Also, with the title "YCNYC", it sounds like this is going to be a NYC based funding cycle, but all the online literature still points to the West Coast. Where are they planning on holding this funding cycle?

This is not a funding cycle. It's a conference/networking event.

I'm coming from Montreal, anybody else driving? I'm willing to car share if you're driving.

Bah, why is it that I always miss this kind of stuff until it's too late

Can we kill the Writeboard to avoid confusion?

more or less done now. i thought the writeboard would suffice when I created it, but it seems google docs was a good idea. i've removed all contacts from the writeboard and added a note.

does anyone know where the meetup is going to be? there was no address in the email or the website.

> More details to follow.

what is the password I dont understand what you said in pwd

Must be a better way!
