    Much like Fatty, I’m often scared but just how much you’ve achieved at such an age. You are, frankly, an inspiration to young people getting into software.
    … Looks like I’ve got 3 weeks to write a world conquering blogging engine, achieve fame, glory and wonderment and maintain being a nice guy and posses a social life. Who’s with me..? Oh.

    Happy Birthday and congratulations Matt.
