    Jason Kincaid currently works as a writer at TechCrunch. He grew up in Danville, California and later relocated to UCLA in Los Angeles, California, where he studied biology with a minor in ‘Society and Genetics’.

    Last week we broke the news that LikeALittle, an addictive college-focused site that lets students flirt with each other, had raised $1 million from Andreessen Horowitz and others earlier this year. The company won’t confirm the amount (though we’ve heard it is a bit higher) but it has just revealed the full list on Quora. And it’s quite impressive, featuring some of the most well-known names in Silicon Valley:

    Andreessen Horowitz – Marc Andreessen
    Paul Buchheit
    Ron Conway
    Scott Cook
    CRV/Saar Gur
    Matrix/Josh Hannah
    David King
    Ashton Kutcher & Guy Oseary
    Yuri Milner
    Shervin Pishevar
    Brian Pokorny
    Keith Rabois
    Naval Ravikant
    David Sacks


    For those that haven’t tried it (again, it’s just for college students for now), LikeALittle is sort of like Craigslist’s ‘Missed Connections’, but with more structure.

    A typical message might read something like: “Brunette Haired Girl At UCLA: You were the handsome guy with glasses who killed it at karaoke last night”. Messages are initially anonymous, but the site includes a messaging platform so students can privately share more information.

    You can also use the service to share non-flirty messages with people nearby (like, “Hey, anyone in the library want to study for the LS2 exam?”)

    LikeALittle is now going by LAL (which is what students are already calling it, anyway). Stay tuned — we’ll have more about them in the very near future.
