I swear I'm not paid by TechCrunch for this stuff: http://techcrunch.com/2012/05/11/from-disrupt-ny-to-a-43-mil...

GroupMe started at the Disrupt Hackathon. But also startups don't just happen over night and the code will probably change drastically once you scale haha. Scalability isn't the primary focus at most hackathons :)




thanks :) this is super-interesting, you say it's not paid so thanks for contributing your story!

by the by do you have some contact info for a quick followup? your profile doesn't list any.
