While spiffing up my resume for
Guru.com, I realized that even having been in the Web business for 5+ years, my skill levels are not nearly where they should be. I've got a fair general base of knowledge, wide but not deep. Too much indecision as to what I want to do when I grow up, I suspect. Still don't know, and that's making the resume-updating hard to do. Left to my own devices, I'd love to sit and hand-code HTML all day long, but not much call for that anymore. I can set up and administer server software, I can do some Unix and NT system administration, I can do some half-assed CGI scripting with perl, I'm a mid-range Cold Fusion programmer, my HTML is starting to get seriously dated since I've spent most of my recent time doing admin-type work instead of web production. Lots of stuff I can do, none of it that I can do
really well. I desperately need to pick a direction and go there. This week I want to teach myself XML and WML and start getting in on wireless development (although to be a real developer, I'll also need to learn some Real Programming[tm], and I don't think my talents really lie in that direction). *sigh* One day I'll figure it out
