Ask YC: I'm applying to YC with a web app, but I also have 4 facebook apps going on the side.

Chances are that I will also be launching a 5th Facebook App after applying to YC that might gain significant traction. Does YC take a percentage of these projects as well?

*I do not actually have 4 facebook apps. I made up this question.

Sounds like a "focus" issue - they're not going to want you to be dividing your attention, especially not with something they're not involved in.

So does one recommend putting all your projects in the corporation of YC funds?

One probably recommends focusing on one project at a time.

P.S. If you ever get rich, I expect an email rubbing this comment in my face ;)

<<I do not actually have 4 facebook apps. I do not actually have 1 facebook app. I do not actually have any hacking skills, but occasionally think about becoming a hacker, applying to YC, and creating useless Facebook apps. Please indulge me by answering my made up questions.>>

No thanks.
