Hot Wasabi, Hot Jobs

Conspiracy theory:

Joel posted his Language Wars and Wasabi posts on September 1, 2006.

He announced the new Joel on Software Jobs Board on September 5, 2006.

Hmm… Joel knew that his Language Wars and Wasabi posts would get a lot of attention, and perhaps some of that attention would last long enough to get a few extra people to notice the new jobs board…

Was the timing of those posts intentional? :)

(Yes, I know, Joel gets plenty of attention any time he says anything, but the Ruby comments alone seemed to generate more than the average amount of chatter.)

    [...] I noticed that he posted frequently and controversially in September 2006 with his “Language Wars” and “Wasabi” posts, and followed that up days later with the announcement of the new Joel on Software Job Boards. [...]
