This should link directly to http://atlantatechvillage.com/ . Edit: Perhaps it should at least include the companies listed there for starters. =D

its like a post-apocalyptic startup world, where devs are squatting in the remnants of old lawyer offices.

Its kind of awesome, but I imagine its not the most stable place to get work done at the moment.

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.

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 :)

Surprised any work can get done around there without a nearby Octane

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 :)

Very sorry about that. I'll take a look at our error log and see if we can fix.

Was it the contact or the application form?

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.
