Barry Bonds makes a brief Demo 07 appearance
At Demo 07, San Francisco Giant star Barry Bonds, and regardless of controversy one of the greatest baseball players ever, made a surprise appearance for Bling Software, which introduced an AJAX client for mobile applications. It turns out that Bling powers Barry Bonds' site for mobile devices. Even so, that still doesn't fully explain why Bonds would show up on stage, for only about 30 seconds, to promote a startup software company.
