Kevlin loves to help and inspire others, share ideas, and ask questions. He has helped many teams with their code, culture, and practices, contributing code to companies and open source. He blogs on code and other things and has been a columnist for several magazines and sites and has been on far too many committees (it has been said that "a committee is a cul-de-sac down which ideas are lured and then quietly strangled").
