seriously tho — i think you do a great job as an [individual] evangelist. still, it would be great to see Google offer a more comprehensive program for working with the developer community.

not to say any one of them is better than the other, but i think you guys do yourselves a disservice by not making those kind of moves more visible. your brand is great & the products are cool, but it still takes a little pro-active effort to make people aware of the opportunity.

He flamed Jeremy for crying out loud! Of course by linking to Jeremy, Matt is only 3 clicks away from porn :) Jeremy is more likely to cuss, rant and rave and eventually rank for your name.

Google is chock full of funny, smart people who could do what I do. We just need to pull a few away from their current projects. BTW, the heart spam graphic came from Flickr; I considered it ironic to use Yahoo's own (excellent) image product to poke some goodhearted fun at Jeremy. jim, I did remove JZ from my blogroll thingie, but more as the mock post against him. We'll see what he does at the end of his one month experiment. David McClure, that url looked 404, but I agree that we need more people doing this.
