"Mr Messina is the man heading the grass roots "revolution" on the web. Over the past few years he's grown a devoted following of fans discovering the new and hot Web Apps that mark the ubiquitous Web2.0. This has become abundantly evident recently with the requirement of a Chris Messina user in the examples of any new or improved Web App flying under the Social Sphere monicker.

I also have to thank Chris for his devotion to cataloging the trends in data display. His flickr photo stream of screen grabs is an absolute delight when hitting road blocks in the development of user interfaces."

"I first met Chris one week ago at BarcampBerlin. Talking to him about Microformats and StructuredBlogging was an eye opener. Within 20 minutes I totally understood why StructuredBlogging is not going to take off.

When he showed me his interface ideas for Flock I was amazed. I wish more I knew more people like him. Chris, good luck for the Citizen Agency and all the other nice things you are doing or planning to do."
