How I snuck into Yahoo! on Joe Hewitt’s back

Joe Hewitt, the author of the incredibly useful Firefox extension FireBug, was recently invited to Yahoo! to give a talk on his creation.

Screen capture of my comment on Joe Hewitt's site on screen at a Yahoo! conference

Like many others, I visited the YUI blog to view the video of said talk. About two or three minutes into watching it however I was surprised to see my name come up on the screen when Joe decided to demonstrate FireBug’s debugging capabilities by debugging comments on his blog. As a result of this, I got a bunch of screen time at Yahoo! Thanks for giving me my 15 seconds of fame Joe!

Now maybe they’ll get back to me ;-)
