It’s true. You can never predict the subject of the conversations at the barbershop. But to not predict where the barbershop will actually be on a certain day?

Thanks to hurricane Fay, the barbershop lights went out. And just when I was second to the chair. Arg. The barber moved us all to his house to finish the jobs. Especially for the guy who was in the chair when the lights went out. Oops.

Mathematics and coding has its similarities but I repeat, “simply is not one in the same”. In coding for the web, no matter what language, your writing specific commands that tell the server or the browser to do something. Your simply talking to the browser and the browser is simply interpreting your commands. So if Math is coding, then, is it safe to say so is the English language? If so, lets change the entire school system to reflect this. Notice how English class in school is titled “Language ARTS”. Math isn’t involved in language, there for the coding lanuages for the web, primarily the most important “HTML” which stands for “HYPER TEXT MARKUP LANGUAGEEEEEE” is in fact NOT math. In any way shape or form. The only similarity is numbers are used, not calculated.

Sigh - now back to my class….

Im not sure what’s gotten into me lately. You have your bad days and your up days. My bad days are pacified by listening to aqualung and Regina Spektor. On the good days I like to throw on a funny hat and listen to Gnarls Berkley.

He’s just so weird and freaky, which makes his style of music attractive to me and thousands of other fans also. If you haven’t heard of him or his music, have a listen on itunes, if you dare.

Today I find myself whistling a slightly different tune; same genre, different song. Designing, coding and developing websites for other companies no longer fits my career description. When your as tangled up in the web as I am your in a club with billions of enthusiast just like you. You read their blogs, scout their work, hell… you even eat their brand of toast because they twitter’d it. The only true difference between them and yourself is they contribute and play a more relevant role in the development of the web. To me, designing websites for others isn’t as rewarding when you use services like Facebook and Google. I want to set sail to construct my own significant contribution to the web and develop a web-based service that offers convenience, ease of use, a beautiful design and mind-blowing functionality. Only then will I be satisfied creatively and motivated passionately to continue my career and confidently title myself Web Developer and Programmer.

So, with that, I’ve began working on a few projects that I am already very proud of. I will for sure post those future ideas when they become much more mature.

Nevertheless, I could not help but stare at the simple interface they have designed for it. I thought I’d share it with you.
