A joke name for
Gabe Newell, one of the most popular employees at
Valve Software. He is always teased about his fatness and his inability to count to the number 3, as well as delaying games 9 years. The name comes from a commentary
node in Team Fortress 2 where he said he could be reached at Gaben@valvesoftware.com. He's become one hell of an Internet meme ever since, with many videos, songs, and even sites based around him.
