Jeff Atwood
Jeff Atwood is the co-founder of Stackoverflow.com and lives in Berkeley, CA with his wife, two cats, three children, and a whole lot of computers. In 2008 Jeff founded and built stackoverflow.com, and what would ultimately become the Stack Exchange network of Q&A sites, in a joint venture with Joel Spolsky. The Stack Exchange network is now one of the top 150 largest sites on the Internet. In early 2012 he decided to leave Stack Exchange and spend time with his growing family while he thinks about what the next thing could be!

2. Building habits that lead to positive community behaviors
3. Communities as interactive, multiplayer text adventures
