Hello all, This is Rahul. Thanks, Udhay, for inviting me to this list. I know Udhay from the online world, through another mailing list with allusions to sheer, soft textiles.
I'm a computer scientist/engineer based in Boston/Cambridge. I work on a broad swath of systems ranging from wired and wireless networks up from the signal layer to server side and distributed systems. I've been orbiting academia for years as a graduate student, and working on startups based on my academic work. After all, what's entrepreneurship but a $10 word saying that you can't find anybody willing to employ you? Work tends to be all consuming most days - yeah, I'm boring, I know - but if I had my druthers, I'd rather be bike riding through the back country or hiking up in New Hampshire. Look forward to listening to all you people here on the list, and hope I can contribute! Rahul
