Haha! My passion is for the customer :). I’m pleased as long as what I’m doing serves a purpose and makes people happy. But in order to feel that, I need to be in more contact with the customer and I have to be put in a mode where I can create freely. I’m not particularly picky about what I make.

My current fascination is with my iPhone and how it is affecting my life, how having an open platform is spurring creativity and spawning cottage industries, and how a company could in effect infiltrate Apple by creating compelling iPhone apps. ;p. iPhone is a GREAT mobile testbed :).
How is this translating into my job search? Well I’m looking for jobs that have a web 2.0 component, high customer engagement, and high creativity demands :). I’m also looking for jobs with leadership opportunities. I’m not sure I can go back to just being an engineer anymore. I really like strategy and analysis. So there you have it.

Check it out!

It was the happiest angst ridden sing-along political rally that I’ve ever been too — uh, well, and the only too ;p. Continue reading The Angst Filled Joyous Sing-Along …→
