Off-topic: I've always wondered who 'Jeff' is on the AWS blog…I like to think it's Bezos, but is it?

Yes, that's me, but with two r's.

When I started writing the AWS blog in late 2004 I wasn't sure how personal I should or could be, and didn't know if it was ok to brand it with my full name. I had adopted "-- Jeff;" as my signature a long time ago, when one of my friends had "++md;"
