I wondered if he'd dropped down on one knee at Max Levchin's wedding over the weekend, where he served as best man, but Hong tells me he popped the question a few weeks ago. Hong also celebrated his 35th birthday earlier this week. I guess this settles the question, James: Definitely hot.

McCracken looked stressed in this pic that Valleywag very special correspondent Paul Boutin snapped at Macworld in January. He may be too busy saving DOS to celebrate, however.

The lifecasting blonde also known as iJustine turns 24 today. Head over to Facebook and give her a birthday poke, but good luck getting a friend request in. Like Robert Scoble, Justine has bumped up against Facebook's 5,000-friend limit. Want to send her a present? We suggest a Starbucks gift card. Not only will it get her free wireless after AT&T moves in, but you'll be hooking Justine up with her favorite drink: a triple grande nonfat no-whip 6-pump extra-hot white mocha.

Google might think you're only 30, but we can do the math. Happy 31st, Kevin! We hope you find this post even more heartfelt than the 13 birthday wishes you got on Facebook — oh, and Julia Allison says happy birthday, too. Now Kevin, I have a rich uncle who's looking to invest some money. Can you fill me in on Digg's secrets? (Photo by AP/San Diego Zoo)
