Funny story: I went to An Event Apart in NYC years ago (I think they’ve only had 1 in NYC) and I’m enamored by the people around me and Eric Meyer grabs the seat next to me while Zeldman is on stage and he’s quietly kind of heckling him (like a friend would not in a bad or mean way…and he couldn’t hear it). I’m sitting there, next to a person I very much admired, like Troy meeting LeVar Burton in Community trying to no freak out. It’s hard not to understate the impact Meyer, Zeldman, and A List Apart had on general front end development.
