How a train ride helped Mixpanel get into YC

Just as Garry helped us, we're happy to pay it forward and meet future YC candidates who make it to the interview at the Creamery.

More like, "how knowing the right people helped Mixpanel get into YC."

Great post but I take issue with calling Andreessen Horowitz the #1 VC firm. I've had an interaction with Marc that made me question whether I'd ever want to work with him.<p>I'd argue that Social+Capital (who took 100% of our A-Round at <a href="http://teamtreehouse.com" rel="nofollow">http://teamtreehouse.com</a>) is really leading the industry now.

I think this theme of "we implemented BASIC Interpreter / Firebase feature / Mixpanel analytics on the plane / street car/ Caltrain" is overused.

The spirit in this is just great, I really mean that!<p>Edit: I realy have been serious about it. Apologies if you could have taken the comment as sarcasm, it wasn't.
