@Brett: Anyone that actually wants to do real programming, especially real programming for the web, and wants to maintain solid performance will gladly admit to being an Asp.Net developer.

David – BTW – your comnmenting doesn’t work with Chrome for some reason. It says I don’t have javascript and/or cookies enabled, but I most definitely do.

re: jQuery and ASP.NET – I was possibly more ‘thrown’ than you were about the connection.

Having said that, I have been using jQuery with ASP.NET since the start of this year. Principally because ASP.NET AJAX client side stuff is very poor when compared with jQuery.

Everyone knows that you had to have a pokemon cheat site on Geocities, that’s where the traffic was at.

3) I can’t imagine having to declare variables types in javascript.

4) I wish I knew how to make urls without the extensions. mod_rewrite is scary.

5) It’s clever.

13) How much was it attend? $300? Pricey.

14) Why do you curse people in the Apple store? I wanted an iPod Touch but as I read more and more, I like it less and less.

17) Have you heard of Plurk? It’s like a timelined Twitter.

1 seems like apples to oranges, no?

You are comparing being able to see how a page is structured in a visual / presentation sense vs how something actually functions.

8: I couldn’t agree more, I have a collection of old sites I used to host on geocities (like when I was 13 also). They deserve to be in some sort of gallery in my opinion.What happened to geocities?

I do remember the geocities days. My website was for a punk rock band I was in… oh boy.
