Jason Young on Communicating

If I believed in a deity, I would know in my heart that they invented blogs to capture in bits the thoughts of Jason Young.  Back in the day when you did your own damn conversation threading, Jason’s emails fell out of the screen like Venus rising from the sea fully grown and perfectly formed.  By the time he had finished he had covered the topic so thoroughly, there was rarely any sense in replying to them–truly a master of communication.  I might be thinking:

“OMG I CAN’T BELIEVE THAT QUESTION WAS ASKED AGAIN”

But Jason was nearly always patient, except maybe that one time I asked him if “architecting” was a real word.  Well, if it wasn’t then, it certainly is now.

With no apology at all to Jim Croce, check out Operator, can you help me place this call.
