This is my application for the upcoming YC batch. I commonly see applications posted postmortem, but don't think I've ever seen one posted prior to the application deadline... so I decided to do just that.

As an added bonus, you can review my application using my application... meta! :)

Hi Loren,

Gittip has made their application public too- https://gist.github.com/whit537/6723103

(Not my company)

Didn't see this one - looks like they beat me to it, so I'm #2 then! :)

FYI I think pg frowns on posting these, hence why you don't see them.

Not sure where I saw that, but basically if everyone posted their app for review HN would be taken over.

Ah, bummer.. did not know that =/

Kivo (S13) is GIT for document collaboration. Currently supporting PowerPoint. They have done some interesting work to tightly integrate with the MSFT Office client and version each slide separately.

You should talk to them.

Hey Loren. Congrats on applying and, more importantly, congrats on Penflip! I applied as well, so hopefully we have the chance to meet in person. :)

Thank you kindly!

And good luck to you! Having a hard time not spending all day refreshing to see if I have any views on the video we submitted with our app!
