AAARRRGGH or Opportunity
AAARRGGGHHH…I’m becoming a web developer!!!These days, it looks like everyone with a website must have some level technical knowledge, unless of course you’re cash rich and hire out a web developer. I’m becoming more a jack of all trades, master of none as it involves website design. I’m glad I have some coding experience; otherwise, bringing this website up would be way behind schedule.
It brings up an interesting point. I love taking pictures, not debugging code. Yeah, creating IS fun, but reading into the bowels of WordPress, all of it’s plugins, and enough html and css to be dangerous. Hell, I want to create pictures, not develop websites. Oh, don’t forget to test your paypal accounts in the sandbox before going live. Add all this into the mix and doing what I love is getting lost in the mix of “things I have to do to create my web presence”.
There is fun in this, otherwise, I’d opt not to spend a lot of time learning html, css, php, syntax, operators, debugging, variables, looping code, GUI’s…phew. It’s kinda bringing me down dude. Damnit Jim, I’m a doctor not a nuclear physicist. Thank goodness for internet resources, like WordPress. While my first attempt at web design was pretty good, I a indebted to those who wrote the tutorials at W3Schools and those who create applications like WordPress and plugins, widgets that seamlessly integrate within.
