So far to go from where i Once began

Hi Blog and All,

I started using a computer as a banker from Boston. Yeah Oregon trail was an obsession, and I had to start out RICH. Not that it ever saved me from drowning in the river. I was a 5 yo at school playing games on a computer. That is what I still try to be, 20 years later. I just try to have fun. When things get stressful… I put the PC away

Over the past few weeks I have been swamped in web work. I love to work in the web field, because ever since my first web project in 2005 I have never stopped learning. My clients’ project’s have been a collection of His/Her/their ideas along a solid notion. Whether the purpose was to spread the message and offer support, or it was in some way asking the visitor to buy something.

The way that the client projected their purpose has been the one thing that I love about my job. Bringing to life people’s ideas, and creating something unique for them to use has been another cool part of the task at hand.

So finally to my point. I have come very far(relative to my notion of it) in the programming, and web development industry since 2005. Now that I can sit back and enjoy building w/e it seems. I have found to be like a toddler. I can’t run yet, and I would love to be able to use Twisted-Python Smart Proxy, or Echo3 with ease. I can just barely crawl (creating Flex->ajax interactive applications). XHTML 1.1 strict as a foundation, and working with PHP5 OOP/Zend with an increasing notion.

As I think back to HTML, and all that funny Caps ridden code with CGI backend(if I could figure out the .pl). LOL. I am amazed that I have kept up with it. Also I think how far I can go into infinte.

There will always be something for me to learn, to better my skillset in the web field.

I will always be a bit ahead of some, and a bit far behind others. I am part of a moment (OpenSource = Coding +Creativity) & not Mac/Apple.

I can just think back to when I was struggling to pick up spry, and couldn’t ever imagine compiling Flash/AS3. Those dang compiler errors always the wall between me publishing anything in flash. Lol

The thing is. Open source has been my education, and I have learned in scholastica. The one thing I can about the internet and you good people. Whenever I had to find an answer; someone had written it somewhere in a PHPbb forum.

If not receiving a UTFSE, I could ask. Then someone would help me. That is actually the one thing I love most about my job. My collegues, and co-nerds are so helpful. There is no way that microsoft, or Apple would be where it is today w/o the GNU/GPL. For that matter, without people like Linus Torvald, and Tim Barrens Lee I wouldn’t be a nerd. Those guys never developed what they had for grossing in the stock market. They simply were inspired by something, and never gave up on it. Today it ecompasses so much more than just money.

When I see people on there computers so stressed, and seeking the latest new/stock information.. It saddens me. The web is about inspiration, creativity, sharing information, and also porn. J/K. Well it is.

Enjoy the web, and learn to love learning. I found that by thinking this way, I won’t ever be worried about the Associated press. I won’t care about whos doing what, and why. I will only be sharing information, and having fun.

No worries, No Gossip, No Lies.

Thank – Rob’s Bits

P.S. I am starting my blog from scratch. No more knock of themes. I am going to cherish the beginning while it is still fun, and if you want to see my latest project.. Click Me
