About the site: I realize that it's not immediately obvious what makes this a startup as opposed to a conference, but ignoring the business model I'd like some feedback on the copy and design of the site. Is it clear what the event is all about? Does the site make you want to come?

My emacs is open so if I get specific suggestions of things that can be improved there is a good chance it will happen.

This is probably not what you're looking for - but I would suggest that you rethink the name of your site. It's too much of a mouthful -- too many syllables.

Thanks for the advice, although it's pretty much set in stone at this point.

Try linking to the blogs of attendees -- you have pretty spectacular pagerank right now, so they'd be into it.
