Valley Forge, PA; anyone near me? rokhayakebe, where in Atl? I grew up in East Cobb (Marietta).
Cool. I live in Marietta (vinings).
My family also lives in Marietta (east Cobb), although I go to school at Auburn.
Cleveland, Ohio. I travel regularly to Detroit, San Francisco and Atlanta for business though.
I'm based in Belgium. My co-founder lives in New York.

Why Eugene? Is is easy to register a company long-distance in Oregon? (I have relatives there and I'm out of the country, so I'm thinking about that angle for a contact address myself :))
My parents live in Eugene, and I visit from time to time. This summer I set up the bank account, which had to be done in person, but otherwise, I was able to create the LLC itself remotely.
San Francisco, CA. Although I'm taking a detour to Paris for awhile, long story.
Chicago, IL
I'm also in Chicago.
Delft, The Netherlands. But ready to move the moment it's neccessary.
I'd like name an exotic location, but I am in good old New Jersey :)
If all goes according to plan, I'll be moving to the SF area in January 2008.
Mannheim, Germany, not exactly the Silicon Valley :-)
Turku, Finland (Northern Europe). Partly in Espoo.
Providence, RI
I'm also working on a startup in Providence. Do you go to Brown?
No, moved here a couple of years ago from NYC. You?
I just graduated from Brown. Ive been out in Palo Alto for the summer, but ill be going back to Providence in September. Whats your email?
Was just in Prov. What startup you working on?
Noosphere Networks - we're early still. PVD has a small, but burgeoning startup scene. www.providencegeeks.com
Between having Brown U., RISD, and being in between BOS and NYC we have a lot of good ingredients.
De Chardin, cool. Noosphere.cc? I'm a Brown grad with some connection still to some Prov. based startups, so if you are needing some connections plz ping me.
Thanks - I'm pretty hooked in as I'm active in trying to grow the local scene, but am always interested to learn about other new startups around here.
BTW, how do you ping someone on this system? Thanks.
Cool. Probably email is the best option for pinging.
my email is on my profile here - don't see yours. would like to hear from you. thanks.
I am also in Providence.
I'm in a third-world country - Manila, Philippines (there are some talent here!) but poorer infrastructure.

I was also born and raised in STL.. left 5 years ago for the west coast, moved to Asia at the beginning of 2007.
Palish, I'll be in STL 9/13 - 9/19 for business meet ups. If you have availability I'd love to buy you a drink and hear about what you have going there. Curious as to how the startup scene in STL is evolving.. -frank{&at&}actercompany.com.

THIS IS TRULY A GLOBAL PHENOMENON. And what we see now is just the start of it. Loving it man.
I think user-oriented sites need good communication between designers and coders, so having a native English speaker was a top priority. Additionally I've generally been impressed with US coders. I also needed someone with a good knowledge of multiple programming languages (rather than a 'solve everything with Perl' guy), and AJAX experience which is surprisingly lacking elsewhere (check out the development history of all those Indian and Hungarian companies on eLance - they might be a fifth the price, but they're generally pretty terrible).
Somewhere after public beta I'll head to SF again for a few months, maybe permanently. When I do, my dev team team will already be there.
