To pay hommage to the great Andy Milonakis and his blazing witticism "Let Me Twitter That" I write this blog. Dealing with a rowdy bunch of young tech genuises everyday is a very rewarding job (like parenting). Sometimes great and sometimes infuriating. Like Einstein who didn't graduate high school but ended up leaving a monumental contribution to what we know as statistical mechanics, young techies can sometimes be quite stubborn in their brilliance.

It's great to see an industry evolve. Having worked with internet technology since 1995, I can say that I've seen quite a bit of evolution happen. Back then, like now, it was a rather tough economic climate for many. Jobs were scarce and after working with linux in its infancy during my computer science years in college, I felt very lucky to get a job cutting my teeth in a "NOC" for a dial up ISP after graduation. I really experienced the garage boot-strap start-up mentality that was so common in that time. Dealing with customers who were pioneers with their websites, it was a time when everyone had to do more with less. However, everyone was optimistic because it really felt like this rather newly public internet technology was a game changer and something that was going to save the world.
