A mention of http://www.hypepotamus.com/ might be useful.

Maybe http://www.atdc.org/ also?

Thank you for the tips! We're always looking for more resources with which to partner.

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

There are a lot of startups not based out of ATV. Anyhow - signing up for this. Excited to see what could come of it.

Thanks! Our goal is to profile all the startups in the community. Let everyone know that we'd love to profile their startup.

I like the tags for region. Will you also allow tagging for university/accelerator affiliation?

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.

As an Atlanta native who might want to end up back there someday, this is great to see!

Quick suggestion - for both semantics and SEO best practices, make the cities a subfolder instead of subdomain

Did you consider started.in/atlanta?

I'm completely with you! This change is at the top of our list.

Thank you for taking the time to send that note!
