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

By Ara Pehlivanian on Friday, June 2nd, 2006

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 ;-)★

    Funny. Too bad people can’t link to yoursite from that video clip; you’d get tons of hits.
