Awesome. Fellow Atlanta native I think this is really great, I hope you can start a trend here. I would love to be able to see all the start ups in my city.
I've been in there a few times over the past few months. From what I've seen, they've been going floor by floor so while parts may look uninhabitable, everything else was coming along just fine.
Lol. I work there. They are, in fact, going floor by floor. The finished floors are really nice. We've moved floors twice since I started in August, but are finally settled in in a corner office, and it's great. The first floor is about done now, and I believe the Octane will be opening soon.
Definitely! We're in the process of partnering with accelerators and incubators across the country. For some, we'll include a tag, and others, we'll create a sub-site. If you have any accelerators or incubators you'd like us to partner with, please reach out via our contact form or twitter.
It would be nice to add a link to a crunchbase profile and add a startup I know in a more WIKI way... you need all startups in Atlanta to be aware of this page... there are quite a few, so you should make it as easy as possible to add a startup even if you don't work there. Let the WIKI gnomes do the work :)
Thanks for the feedback eranation! Our goal is to be less of a repository and more of a showcase, where startups are featured once a week. We find that lists of startups are rarely sifted through. Learning about one startup a week allows for a deeper knowledge of the startups in each community.
I kept a note of your feedback though and we'll keep an eye on other users feedback as well. We're a startup too and love hearing what everyone has to say. If I see a trend towards what you're asking, we may just implement a more WIKI approach.
Just submitted -- fyi you have a bug in the form, if there's an error, it isn't displayed (Safari 7 anyway). I had to look at the XHR's in the console to see what error was being returned from the server :)

Anyhow - signing up for this. Excited to see what could come of it.
Any tips like this are greatly appreciated!
Its kind of awesome, but I imagine its not the most stable place to get work done at the moment.

Was it the contact or the application form?
Did you consider started.in/atlanta?
Thank you for taking the time to send that note!
