(unofficial) YC Meetup: Boston, Sunday, Nov 4, 2007

from the self-post dept.

We thought it'd be fun to have a meetup this weekend for anyone in town - forum members, applicants, friends, whoever.

Time: Sunday, November 4th, at 7 PM Eastern (don't forget that daylight savings time ends at 2am that day)

Place: Inside "Lobby 7" at MIT - enter at 77 Massaschusetts Ave in Cambridge, MA http://maps.google.com/?q=77%20Massachusetts%20Ave%2C%20Camb... (come up the big steps and inside the lobby - don't wait out in the cold!)

The Plan: Come meet other news.yc'ers, maybe grab some food, talk about cool stuff, share ideas, and who knows what else could happen with this awesome mix of people.

If you're interested in coming, just show up! (Better yet, send us an email at [email protected], and we'll give you our cell numbers and more detailed directions if you're from out of town)

My friend Rob and I will be there no matter what - hope you can join us.

So, after waking up this morning, I realized that it would be more than a bit awkward (and probably very stressful for some) to meet this weekend, with interviews / decisions and all happening.

So we're NOT going to meet this weekend, and instead let's push it out so everyone has more notice - to December 1st.

Maybe people in other cities want to have meetups for the same weekend?

Methinks as the organizer you should keep your word and still show up; whoever finds it awkward would simply not go.

Well I'll still be there!

It can be a YC interviewees (but really everyone welcome) meetup. Nov. 4th is the date when a lot of us will be together in one city, so I'd like to meet some people then.

Ahh, I haven't heard the phrase "Lobby 7" for a long time . . . thinking of coming up from DC just for the nostalgia. :D
