awesome news! keep up the good work.

on a side note, perhaps this is a benefit of attending college that a lot of the anti-education crowd here on HN might not realize --- connections with alumni from your alma mater. of course, you still need to take massive initiative like OP did, but at least that option is available to you.

Hey, pgbovine, I think you and I go to the same school! Also, I think this is true of other organizations too (I've met people through Barcamps, gyms, hobby clubs...)
