If you want to have the username on the url like they have, you can use

map.connect ':username', :controller => <controller_name>, :action =>
<action_name> and you will access the username via params[:username]
You will need to have that as one of the last entries in your routes file
and you'll have to be careful of usernames conflicting with your other
controller paths
