Wikipedia Programmer: We Do The Funny Portrait Placement Thing Because It Works
You know, I'm becoming something of a fan of Brandon Harris (the latest face of Wikipedia's fundraising efforts, which you should absolutely donate to.)First, he's a programmer on Wikipedia, which is pretty much the most world-bettering programming gig you could ever have.
