Backstory: I'm starting a company to produce educational games (you can probably guess the URL) and I went looking for the "HN for Education" post from a while back. I think it's important to have such a site for the education community.

It turns out (for whatever reason) that news site was taken down, so I've spent the last week or so getting the reddit codebase running and customized on a VPS. (Many thanks to spladug and alienth of the reddit dev team for humoring all my dumb questions and helping me get the code running.)

The goal is to provide a central place where everyone in education/technology can come together to discuss news, startups, and ideas. This is all about the community, and I wouldn't have gotten this far without everyone who's helped me along the way. The education-startup community is very young, so I hope to see you guys voting/contributing there. If you're working in this space, I'd be happy to help you out however I can -- feel free to drop me an email.
