Y Combinator Interviewees

This info would definitely be fun to see. Unfortunately, I think we'll have to wait and see what the SFP guys produce.

If you were selected for an interview, would you divulge the details of your team and project knowing that you are still in competition with other teams to get into the SFP?

The benefit of participating in a random web forum compared to the risk of jeopardizing your acceptance to YC is simply too small to be even remotely worth it for most teams.

Perhaps after the interview process some will be open to sharing, but before that I don't think we'll see much response on this thread.

Not to mention that these guys are probably hacking their asses off instead of hanging around here like us ;-).

Our Company: Dreamvex LLC. Our First Project: bandsintown.com Public Description: Bandsintown takes an innovative approach to the live music scene by offering an online social destination where users can search, discover, and share their live music experiences. Simply put, Bandsintown.com is the best live music event search, notification, and discovery tool available.

It would be interesting for the REJECTS to see what the pool of accepted interview companies consist of.

VoteUp if you would be interested in this. And if you made the cut please post in the replies the following information:

Your Company Name: Small Public Description: Demo, Screencast, or Company Link if applicable:

This is definitely a Karmactic idea.

Yeah. HA. Thinking about it now, im sure some of the YCombinator COOL KIDS would be apprehensive about sharing their superior ideas. SO maybe I should change this post to have the REJECTS post their companies and descriptions instead.

They may be too preoccupied with their upcoming interviews to worry about posting here right now. The ideas for their actual projects may completely change once the YC starts working with them.

Revised Post for the Rejects: Would you post the following information for the interest of other REJECTS?
