Count me in as well. Can someone please post the location and time details? I could not see info on how to get invitation to "Palo Alto OpenCoffee Club" when I clicked that link. I get message "That venue is private".

"weekly Palo Alto OpenCoffee Club on Tuesday between 830-100 at Deuce France in the Town & Country Village close to the intersection of El Camino Real & Embarcadero."

It's open to anyone (hence opencoffee) so no need for invitation. You just turn up and enjoy. The first one in London drew 120 people during the 2 hours, completely overunning the starbucks where it took place. I hope Palo Alto will be the same.

Thanks. I assume 830-100 means 8:30 AM to 10 AM then. Wish it was over weekend,

FYI, I made this post aside from Startup School -- I was originally hoping to meet up with other YC News peeps in the Palo Alto area (maybe those thinking of applying for Summer Founders?).

Regardless, observing this thread's progression, I'd also love to be able to meet as many of you as possible (put faces to those comments!) whether you live around Palo Alto or will be in town during Startup School.

Arranging this over week-end would really help a lot.

Well, what I mean to say is that the number of meetups is simply dependent on those interested. YC News gatherings shouldn't ultimately be restricted to Startup School weekend.

I figured that it would be great if YC News goers in the Palo Alto area get together since we're probably sitting in the same neighborhood.

Ideally, it would be awesome if YC News communities got together with peers in their immediate locales. Know what I mean?
