The last point is the most important of course. Although it must be fun to say that you are Chief Performance Yahoo! to non-geeks at parties, he has left Sunnyvale, and has head a touch North to Mountain View.

I am very excited indeed to say that he is going to be starting at Google on January 7th, as you can see from the top of his site:

Lunch is on me on the 7th, Steve :)
