I've heard that in previous rounds they e-mail around 9:30PM CST.

Makes sense, I mean if I were PG I'd take all the time I could (seems like a hard decision).

Also, be sure to check your spam folder as I've also heard the message can end up there.

Same here. My demo has been down a number of times recently though because of memory issues and my analytics didn't show visits from the Bay Area. Still, whatever the decision is, I'm excited to know.

me too. I have been working hard at mine for months, the demo is really working good now (although I could not show it for the application deadline) I have a new server I am loading up to host it.

We are all smart people!

no makin it for me either. But I still have such a good feeling my idea will be a winner!

If anyone wants to see if, I'll add you to the list.

Truth be told. Yes.

Thank gosh I am not the only one.

What was your proposal for?

I look to lease rich-media tools for plastic surgeons' websites. Instead of clinical copy to sell procedures, Moxe’s media player will use voice, photography, text, and 3D animation to engage visitors. Practices can shorten the sales cycle with marketing that sells more effectively to women. Been at it two years.

wow very interesting! I can imagine the market is good. Especially here in California.

Thanks Jason...most docs get 40-60% of their new patients from the Internet. There is a single dominating competitor. They have a 99.9% lifelike android operated on in graphic detail. Certainly not something that sells surgery. They are still killing it.

Correction though. November 5th is the date that Y Combinator will notify applicants that have made it to interview stage.
Re:Is anyone else dying to know...... by jason_slack on Thursday November 05, 2009 @06:24PM (#925046)
yes, true, you are notified to do the interview on the Weekend of Nov 20-22
