I'm sure there are hundreds, but I really want to know how many are serious and what their motivations are.
I applied this cycle because I need to be somewhere where big ideas + execution are considered the norm rather than where I am now, where web apps seem like a thing to put on your resume to get work at a bland company writing Crystal Reports on business development ROI.
Amazon and Microsoft are headquartered near Seattle, and other well-known companies (eg Google) have offices in the area. Plus I am sure there are lots of smaller companies around.
I'm thinking of making a business to deploy ubiquitous services with the help of collaborative wiki-tagging products. Or maybe generate Facebook-driven architectures using leading-edge ROI. Or maybe deploy frictionless services accurately via venture-backed cloud-funded models.

I'm not ready to pick up and move to the Valley. Yet.
Do you think YC will like these ideas? ;)
