Just wondering if/why doesn't YC display a listing of their current incubator startups, I'd really like to look through them and see what they're all about! I'm sure there's some reasoning behind this, thoughts?
Many of the in-incubation YC startups tend to exhibit a bit of secrecy around what they're doing in my experience. I was at the TC party two weeks ago and met a few current YC class founders who weren't willing to share even their name just a vague "we're solving a problem in X industry". I'm not sure if secrecy until launched is a directive/suggestion from YC or if it's something each YC company decides on their own.
There's a spreadsheet up on Google docs containing a large list of companies that got seeded, including a tab with YC companies.<p>You can find it here: <a href="https://spreadsheets.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AkkhSN3vaY4jdF90b1l1Vnl5NmZjaTBNQWlJYVozMEE" rel="nofollow">https://spreadsheets.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AkkhSN3...</a>
