It was actually a UCSD cs professor, his name was something like Rohan Preturi, who introduced me to YC!

I think at the time, my friend and I were probably the only two at that school to know about YC, but it's great to know a little community over there is sprouting. SoCal YC'ers need to get together.

Email is in my profile if you guys wanna chat!

Haha, i think you mean Mohan Paturi! That explains how he knew his stuff when it came to new startups, especially web 2.0ish companies.

Yes, that's him. He was pushing rails and all that stuff a good 4 years ago. Seemed like a sharp guy.
