JWZ
From Encyclopedia Dramatica
Initials and internet moniker for ex-AOL employee Jamie Zawinski.
Jamie is, by Internet standards, a Rock Star. Well known for his work in establishing and creating what's now called Mozilla, he used the funds from his old Netscape stock to establish what is a fairly well known and large venue, the DNA Lounge. He still produces software (once a geek, always a geek), and has done quite a bit for San Francisco's gay nightlife, or semblance thereof.
Of course, with his newfound fame and loss of a fortune, he now hides inside of his fortress of solitude, hidden forever by piles of bills and receipts for bribes, booze, and debauchery.
We can only hope to be JWZ.
Many people think JWZ is a dick. Others just think he is arrogant and egotistical.
During his final days at America Online, JWZ's screensaver included a countdown that indicated the amount of time left until his Netscape stock options matured and he could get the hell out of the company.
Whenever people accuse LiveJournal of having no redeeming content apart from 16 year old girls the defenders of LJ always point to JWZ. His LJ is simply a collection of links and pictures he finds interesting, not particularly noteworthy. Most of them are ganked from Boing Boing.
