Twitter List for YC Applicants

Congrats to the startups that were chosen by YC to interview. For those of us who are continuing to bootstrap I'd like to take this opportunity to create a network out of the promising entrepreneurs that are still dedicated to making *it happen for their startups.

Please post your Twitter usernames here. I would like to follow you all, and hoping we'll all follow each other. I'll also create a Twitter list from the names posted here.

I'll start...

Excellent idea. Thoughtscream Media doesn't even have an official site up yet, at this time - alas, almost certainly one of the many flaws in our application. Oh well, it didn't cost us to make the effort, even if we're so barely starting out, the wheels've barely begun to turn.

Actually, does content format experiments on a /personal/ blog even count as going anywhere right now?

In lieu of getting into a debate about that, our twitter accounts:

@ThoughtScreamM (group) @JCThoughtscream (editor) @SCThoughtscream (technical)

I'll post my audiovisual cofounder's account once I convince him that Twitter's actually worth investing time in.

I'm bootstrapping without having applied to YC - We are based in NZ with families so YC not practical. However, I have read every single one of Paul Graham's excellent essays.
