Josel Salalima - It Me (Deprecated)

I’m a software engineer and I enjoy designing and developing web sites and applications. And yeah, I was one of those kids who tweaked out their AOL and MySpace profiles until it was just right... especially when formatting profile blocks depended on typing in periods as filler and hiding them using a matching font color or some xml code capsulation trick.

In a lot of ways the web is like a giant art museum. Each site is an exhibit representing a different opinion in design and a reflection of the current visual trends; so, having a fresh and daring sense of style combined with a focused plan of execution is one of the best assets a web developer can have. That says a lot about the expectations

in web developers - we have to be great artists as well as great coders. We must mix the logical and procedural with the inventive dexterity of our imagination. Most importantly, we have to make it look effortless; a smooth translation between the creative mind to the digital canvas.

That's usually easier said than done!
