Attn Hackers: New York Wants YOU

Techies at New York startups such as Foursquare, Etsy, Meetup and Gilt Groupe are looking for other techies to visit New York and stay in their apartments as part of a new program called Adopt A Hacker. It’s couch surfing for nerds!

In a bid to lure more talent to the Big Apple, out-of-towners can apply to stay on the couches of folks like Kyle Barry, a developer with online craft marketplace Etsy, or Katelyn Friedson, technical product manager with online ad exchange ContextWeb.
