So the other day someone on facebook asked who someone was and supplied a picture. As it happens I had no idea who it was so I started wondering how I could still identify the person and supply the answer. Well, as is often the case, Google has already thought this up and supplied the answer. Take a look at the following short video to see how this is easily done.
Found the following while working on other emacs configurations, works great for when your code gets out of hand:
Written by 
;;; Use "%" to jump to the matching parenthesis.
(defun goto-match-paren (arg)
"Go to the matching parenthesis if on parenthesis, otherwise insert
the character typed."
(interactive "p")
(cond ((looking-at "\s(") (forward-list 1) (backward-char 1))
((looking-at "\s)") (forward-char 1) (backward-list 1))
(t (self-insert-command (or arg 1))) ))
(global-set-key "%" `goto-match-paren)
