Thoughts from Stephanie Sexton

Being a web develper you run into alot of unique individuals overtime weather from conventions of events and many for the most part are focused on one type of industry, which is great because most are employed but a single company but alot of self employed web developers like myself take jobs when we want and based on, alot of times ease of creation. When you have reached a level of the web where working from home at anytime you want the world is much differnt then for those that have to clock in and report to a boss and are assigned work.Just not dealing with rush hour traffic to anf from work is pricless but whenever I take a project on these days I always tell my clients that a web site constantly changes over time and over that time you will want changes and things added nothing is perfect for atleast a year in my mind or from what I have seen over the many jobs I have taken and even then that is when alot of flash and video work come in because everyone wants the prettiness if there is such a word if not I just made one up. But one thing I tell everyone is give a chance for the dial up users and search engine spiders to crawl the home page and put any video or flash on sub pages that way it does not affect there ranking of your web site in the engines and believe it always does. Adding video or flash files always slows the load time of the page and is very complicated in making standards commpliant which is what everyone wants now a days.Anyways just wante dto ramble on a little bit since it is a slow cold day any body with anything cool to say please go rght ahead and let your voice be heard and text be read I guess would be a better saying. Being able to be around my family more makes me so much happpier even if the do drive me crazy every once and awhile.

Just got back from the movies saw Hannibal Rising and I have to say I was quite immpressed with the show. In the first tow movies the audience is led to believe Hannibal Lector is this terrilble guy but in this one you can tell why he was driven to madness. Really well done sequal to an already awsome series of past blockbusters. Some really cool stuff in the movie but not for children to see.

I love to surf the web and listen to Yahoo Launch which is a free service that allows you to rate music then plays other music related to what you rate as good. They seem to have just launched a new Beta version of the music service and I have to say I am impressed with what I have seen so far. Righ tnow I am bumping Beyonce and and Fat Joe. My all time favortire ahas to be Lil Wayne. Was wondering what everyone out there listens to when they surfing the web or riding in the car. Looks like a great format for movies if Yahoo ever starts to offer on demand videos.
