Hello...

Indeed, I wrote the internal web site (built on a pre-release prototype of AppEngine!) that aggregated these jokes, and released it on April 1, 2007. I was not funny enough to come up with the jokes myself; I enlisted some friends to seed the site before "launch".

In retrospect, I regret that Jeff Dean Facts gave people the impression that Jeff is more notable than Sanjay. The only reason it was "Jeff Dean Facts" and not "Sanjay Ghemawat Facts" is because Jeff seemed "funnier". But I dunno, that might just be some form of subtle racism that I failed to recognize at the time. :(
