Jacob is one of those people who can improve anyone else's appearance simply by standing next to them. They always look better than he does. Also, how did I know just by looking at the thumbnail that this one would have "pensive" in the title. Isn't there another word we can substitute here? "Thoughtful," maybe? "Pensive" appears to be the favorite selection for such shots -- to the point of excluding alternatives. :/ http://www.useit.com/jakob/photos/jakob_pensive_big.jpg http://www.useit.com/jakob/photos/jakob_pensive_big.jpg

<sarcasm> 72% of viewers are uncomfortable with a dark tie over a dark shirt. 68% of viewers dislike striped shirts in high resolution photos. 52% of viewers don't trust a man with a receding hairline and hair over his ears. 18% of viewers are PETA members who are offended when a mouse is suspended by its tail. 27% of right brained individuals experience discomfort when the speaker blocks the words on the slide behind him. 18% of women with incomes over $100,000 think a matching tie and hankerchief convey distrustfulness. 22% of elderly tailors think that putting your hand in your pocket reveals flaws in workmanship. 67% of "green aware" individuals are extremely uncomfortable when faucets are left running. 100% of sighted people think that red shirts should be reserved for bull fighters. 18% of people suffering with vertico are uncomfortable with people on bridges with traffic below. 22% of hookers expect higher payments from men in wrinkled shirts. </sarcasm>

Strangely, everyone whose name I recognized looked exactly as I would have expected ... except for Jakob Nielsen.

Passing resemblance to Paul Buchheit, I'd say... http://bp0.blogger.com/_4sbxCBha3lY/RfoW9T8Tm3I/AAAAAAAAAZ8/zGM4aLX089M/s400/me2-thumb.jpg http://bp0.blogger.com/_4sbxCBha3lY/RfoW9T8Tm3I/AAAAAAAAAZ8/... http://www.useit.com/jakob/photos/jakob_mouse_big.jpg http://www.useit.com/jakob/photos/jakob_mouse_big.jpg
