I second this.
When you frame the question to ask so someone for help sometimes you tend to get the answer yourself. I've been practicing rubber duck debugging for a while and it has proved quite successful.
I'm Gopal Venkatesan a.k.a g13n. I presently work at Yahoo! in the Mail team. Although most of the time I write PHP or JavaScript, I love to learn more programming languages, especially the ones that have curlys (like C.) My recent love is Google Go.
Although I have contributed to quite a few open source projects, I consider my contribution to YUI as the best since I enjoy using it. I'm one of the contributors of YUI and the developer/maintainer of the YUI Carousel project.
Apart from computers (on which I spend most of my time), I love traveling and photography.
