Jumping the shark was my finest moment.

I don’t think ‘jumping the shark’ is the phrase you mean unless you feel like Bill Gates jumped the shark in 1984.

I read the article and thought that quite a bit of the historical info on Google was likely paraphrased from your book, The Search!

I think Time likely owes you just a little bit of payment, or a bigger citation in conjuction with the article — what do you think?
