Hi Shamil: I love it. Did you check out the attached comments some are equally as insightful. Many years ago, (1987) I quit a good career in the government, to start up my own computer company and made more in a couple years than I had in the previous 15 to 17 years...then the dot com bust. Web designing is for kids less the forty and more so less than thirty but that is where the money is. You, I and most of the group here are from the first wave (boom) and a few are from the second wave. Some made the transition (or had/have to) from the first wave to the second but many did/will not.

Hi All -- The author of the referenced below article is IMO a talented young (essay) writer but he had to become a "mediocre web developer" to make his living: " In today's world, web developers have it all: money, perks, freedom, respect. But is there value in what we do?" http://www.aeonmagazine.com/living-together/james-somers-web-developer-money / :) -- Салахетдинов Шамиль _______________________________________________ dba-Tech mailing list dba-Tech at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/dba-tech Website: http://www.databaseadvisors.com
