Ask HN: Meetup in SF for YC rejects

Let's face it. You still think your idea is great and has legs but you didn't get your seed funding.

How about we all meetup? It would be beneficial to meet people in the community to share ideas, find partnerships and be a support group. If there's critical mass, it can be a sort of weekly happy hour/coffee thing that's a good excuse to get out of the house and interacting with people again.

Anybody interested?

(Edit: I created the event. RSVP if interested. Date and place are TBD.)

    if you make this on a weekend, you might get more people to make it up the city. I would love to attend, either way.

    All the YC rejects should pool their money, pick the best rejected idea, and start a company.
