At its annual Readers Choice Awards ceremony at VSLive! in San Francisco this evening, Fawcette Technical Publications presented four of its long-term speakers with the "Power of Ten Distinguished Speaker Award." The recipients -- Dan Appleman, Keith Pleas, Jonathan Zuck and Yours Truly (that's me on the far right) -- have been speaking at FTP conferences since their inception in 1993. Thanks, FTP! (Unconfirmed reports suggest that one or more of the Limited Edition award certificates may soon be available on eBay.)
