I went in 2010, but did not apply in 2011. I don't feel I will be going this year either. I just have been too busy and dedicated with my day job to work on side projects/startup projects to feel like I would be worthy of going this year. I'm jealous still of anyone who gets in and goes :) At least I can watch the videos online after they are posted.

is there a link to previous years' video?

I would assume it's your HN information.

I would think so too, except I didn't enter it anywhere, so I'm not sure how the association is made. Oh well, no sense worrying about such mundane details.

To apply, you need to sign in using your HN username and password. If you were already signed in, you probably just didn't notice that the form already knew who you were.

That's good to know! I won't be making it there, but I would very much like to spend some time watching the talks. Are the talks from previous years available? I could not find any links on the website.

First link after a Google search: http://www.justin.tv/startupschool/videos

@pg: How many hackers attend each year? I forget to count ;)

Dinkelspiel holds 715 but Mem Aud holds 1715.

Cheers! Great venue and the best startup conference in town. Startup School is by far the best startup conference in the Bay Area, and I say that as a 20-something startup founder that mostly still finds increased social connection with 20-something startup founders more compared to wizened 30-something serial entrepreneurs, media people, employees, and successful failures. It's a good thing Startup School is going to get a lot bigger this year because it's unfortunate that so many people always were rejected.

It's actually very difficult to find a venue of this size in the Bay Area, though particularly in San Francisco. I say this as both an ex ticket scalper and an event promoter for a large Bay Area event that is coming up.

By the way, please come to my event (the Singularity Summit!) www.singularitysummit.com Use coupon code HACKERNEWS for a discount on tickets.

+1 I was disappointed to see "past years" was just a list of speakers in no discernable order, with no idea what they talked about (or when), no recordings, no slide decks, etc.

+1, live streaming with hangouts on air would be amazing! http://www.google.com/+/learnmore/hangouts/onair.html

That would be amazing!

I got an invite for Work at a Startup at the start of the year, but couldn't go because I live in Australia. To avoid the plane ticket I looked at other ways of getting there, like via cargo plane or cargo ship. It turns out the first one is illegal an the second one is more expensive and takes longer :D
