Just got a Y! Instant Messenger ping from one of my erstwhile colleagues at GCap:

13:58:48 erstwhile_colleague: can you think of a way in which I can get this
                              column styled design working without multiple lists??
13:58:58 erstwhile_colleague: fail
13:59:13 erstwhile_colleague: you can't see the file I was going to send as it's
                              on the internal network!

So we chatted back and forth for a while - I thought some of his questions were a little odd, but then came this:

14:27:16 NickFitz: I'm just starting to read "Building Scalable Web Sites"
14:27:27 NickFitz: I think there's a copy on the bookshelf there
14:28:10 erstwhile_colleague: yes there is
14:28:15 erstwhile_colleague: how do you know.....
14:29:15 NickFitz: I used to work there /:)
14:29:31 erstwhile_colleague: where?!?!
14:29:36 erstwhile_colleague: my office?
14:29:45 NickFitz: Near the bookshelf :D
14:30:11 NickFitz: You are aware who you're talking to, aren't you?

Turns out his chat client had gone haywire and was displaying a chap from Y!'s photo next to my username - he thought he was talking to this other chap all along

You could have had some real fun with that

You could have had some real fun with that

Indeed

Unfortunately I don't really know the other chap very well (just to nod hello to) otherwise I might have realised sooner who he thought it was and been able to really go to town
