Honored to be included, working at Bitscribe actually got me to sign up to HN which subsequently, between working for YC companies and the HN Hiring posts, has driven a significant majority of my career, so it all kind of comes full circle.
I may predate you! We were shared an office with Heroku back during their/our YC days.
Fun memory - James and bitscribe helped me with my prior startup. I remember them brainstorming a 'collaborative IDE' while they helped us set up our servers.
You may have been at bitscribe at the time with pedro and morton?

Hello -
You've been invited to the Heroku beta by your friend james@heroku.com.
They included this message:
--------------------------------------------------
So we're up and running, and can officially talk about our YC funding now. You are probably outside of our audience, but feel free to kick it around and send me any feedback you have. Going to invite Colin and the Bracy's too.
I got you beat, Oct 25, 2007 - the original post I mentioned that they had a bug (a before_filter for authentication on the invite route) so it was unusable before they fixed it based on my report - a classic rails error! Vintage stuff, great nostalgia.

It's been so long I had to go back and find my prior post, but I think so!
