Brian Leroux

Brian LeRoux is the lead at Nitobi Software with the prestigious title
SPACELORD!!! He also has the dubious distinction of being the creator of wtfjs.com (http://wtfjs.com/) and crockfordfacts.com
(http://crockfordfacts.com/). To make matters worse he actually has a non-breaking space tattoo. Aside all these ridiculous distractions he is also responsible for leading the direction on the wildly popular PhoneGap free software project that has the audacious goal to provide a web platform complete with Device APIs for nearly all smartphone operating systems.
