On the mailing list we agreed to have another meetup on Saturday, Jan. 17th somewhere in Manhattan. Post your venue ideas as comments, and/or vote up what looks good.
Also, if you haven't already then join the mailing list, nyyc@googlegroups.com. It's very low traffic.
OK, I RSVPed - ping me - contact info in my profile - doing some simple mad science experiments around doing a social aggregator for financial market news, so far it's sort of a semi-useful mashup of YC and TechMeme. Maybe grab drinks in NY the Wednesday or Thursday before heading out? or maybe meet up out there!
When we set a date can announce for any other folks from NY.
I live in Brooklyn myself, but Williamsburg isn't terrible convenient. It's equally inconvenient for people coming from UES/UWS and NJ. It would be best if we picked something equally accessible to everyone - in my experience Union Square West Village are usually good middle grounds.
That said, I'm definitely interested. Don't think I'd be able to do it on 7/20, but we should make it a regular thing (and even rotate location). Can we make a Google Group for this or something?

Sounds awesome, just joined. Would appreciate a few days notice if possible since I'd be coming to SF from NYC. If any YC alums are up for doing something similar in NYC please let me know too. Thanks again
We're expecting a much larger crowd than the FB page would indicate; we've been doing a lot of offline outreach in the community, and obviously not everyone's comfortable signing up on FB nowadays :)
That's too bad. I don't have any plans for other events at the moment, but if you're in New York we should go grab a coffee sometime and talk shop. jashkenas(at)gmail, if you want to get in touch.
There is a google group, BTW: http://groups.google.com/group/nyyc
