jfbSo, woo! I'm finally on the first page of Google results for my name. That is, my this-millennium web site is finally on the first page.
The only pages that still rank higher are my last-millennium web site from grad school and... two posts from the URI mailing list circa 1993. Why do those posts have a higher rank? Are a lot of people linking to my decade-old opinions on syntactic wrappers for uniform resource identifiers?
But at least I've finally won out over my 1998 flirtation with programming by example, my 1993 quibbles with the URL spec, the 1824 birth of a son to John Erik Ostrom of Limborg, Sweden, and Dave's perpetual insistence that he's not really dead.
ego-googling == fun.

Poor Dave.

I just realized the other day that the results for the 2001 Go Congress made it to the first page of my ego-Google. And creepy Christian Glenn doesn't seem to be on there anymore. Yay!
