Joel Spolsky, the mind behind "Joel on Software", one of my must read technology blogs and author of
"Joel on Software" or rather longer (official) title "Joel on Software: And on Diverse and Occasionally Related Matters That Will Prove of Interest to Software Developers, Designers, and Managers, and to Those Who, Whether by Good Fortune or Ill Luck, Work with Them in Some Capacity" is doing his 21 city FogBugz World tour and hence dear friend and co-founder of San Gabriel Valley .NET User group,
Rob Walling, finally get to meet him in NY. Now calculating the degrees of separation with Joel....
Joel is software developer extraordinaire and we like to think of his writings as pragmatic readings for software developers. Being a schemer, I'm a little bit biased towards
Paul Graham's camp (and his inclination towards academia) but Joel definitely has excellent things to say when it comes to real world and practical software development practices.
Congrats Rob, I hope you don't get too much fan mail :)
