The guy who writes that blog is called Daniel Lyons - a Forbes journalist. I really like FSJ. Sometimes it's a bit too harsh and overtly-political, but a lot of the time it's hilarious.

I remember when his identity was revealed. A few people were going hysterical, it was funny really.

Yeah he started the blog while researching/writing a Steve Jobs parody book called "options".

Lyons is now pretty famous in Silicon Valley (from what I've read...). The real Steve Jobs is said to have read the blog, and Bill Gates referenced it in their joint interview at D: All Things Digital last year.
