Dimitri Gaskin is a core developer on Drupal, a jQuery wizard and above the fact that he got to present at Google he’s only 12 years old.  For a 12 year old he did a fairly decdent presentation (He hasn’t been taught that you should never use “ummm” to pause) and showed a lot more talent in jQuery then more then a few coders I know.

* WordPress uses jQuery for a lot of the fancy AJAXy things and has been moving primarily to it.
