One quick correction. Our seed round was from First Round Capital, the founders, and angel investors. No money from Gemini Israel Funds (I actually have never even talked to them). Could you let me know where you found that info so we can correct it? Also, I sent you another invite. I think when I emailed you, it may have been an error I made. Feel free to call, email, or twit me if you still have problems getting in - we have about 100 people in now so I know it's possible ;-) Thanks for the post Mike. One quick correction.
