In an April 1st shocker Robert "RSnake" Hansen (known in appsec circles as the prince of XSS) has just posted an entry on his site about his new gig at Google.

"People tend to think of me as a Google hater, but the truth is the only thing I've hated about Google is the fact that I don't work for them. I'm proud to say that as of today I will be leading the XSS testing team within Google." - RSnake

A Google spokesman was quoted as saying "We decided to hire RSnake based on the many years of constructive interactions with him".

I for one welcome Google's new XSS testing overlord.
