Pat Patterson has been working with Internet technologies since 1997, building secure Web services and web access management software at Sun Microsystems, and cloud storage infrastructure software at Huawei Technologies. Before joining the platform developer evangelism team at salesforce.com in late 2010, Patterson was best known as the community lead for the OpenSSO project. Describing himself as an ‘articulate techie’, he hacks all manners of code from Force.com apps down to Linux kernel drivers, writing it all up on Developer Force (http://blogs.developerforce.com/), Superpatterns (http://blog.superpat.com/) and, of course, Twitter (http://twitter.com/metadaddy).
