Cool. Yeah I was hoping you guys got to go out a bit. Thats cool that some of the music companies are choosing NYC. Makes sense. Which company are you with? Reble is that still the name?

This is really good advice, that is the real target market and those are the users who would eventually become our community.

Cant blame the user though. We may need to clarify this somehow.

Ya Def. We are working to change that for sure.

What shows did you add? there is no approval process. When you add them they should just appear on the according artist or venue pages. One problem I had before, was i added shows for january and feb of next year but i accidently had the y

Do the HackerNews Readers have any constructive critism for us? anything is good. We still have a long ways to go but the more input we have the better. Thanks for the help in advance.

Ha i like that.

by knewjax 19y ago
yeah I like that. Just makes it an easy way to check out the companies that have some kind of relationship with hackernews and YC.

That does make sense, and I think it is natural for a Ycombinator applicant to try and highlight their startups here. I do not mind if you change the URL as well. I think the suggestion to use "YCombinator Applicant" would solve it in the f

Maybe in the future companies could just use "YC funded company" or "YC applicant" if they felt the need to highlight it.

Yeah I agree. With so many startups launching it just seemed logical to highlight YC applicants here.

I am one of the founders. I do not consider it dwelling on the fact that we were rejected. It doesnt actually bother me at all as you can see from most of my previous posts I have been labeling ourselves that way to help motivate others to

Is this considered unethical or against the hackernews rules? We label Bandsintown as a rejected company to show perseverance and because i think there is an interest in the companies that are applying to YC wether they made it or not. I am

This post was originally titled "rejected YC company Bandsintown at it again" are there rules here forbidding us from saying that? The title was edited a few minutes after i posted it. I know i have an interest in all the companies that are
