Brendan Eich Ward Cunningham and Me

There are two languages that make web pages work - HTML and JavaScript. While attending the O'Reilly Fluent Conference^1^^, I had the pleasure of meeting Brendan Eich^2^^. He's the creator of JavaScript.

*Unfortunately, I was experimenting with the settings on my camera and borked this shot a little. Alas... such is life.*

I also met Ward Cunningham^3^^. AKA the guy who created the first wiki, the forerunning of Wikipedia.

I feel smarter just for being in their proximity.
