So the EX works at Amazon.com.
I hadn't talked with him for a few weeks, so I e-mailed him and asked him what he was up too.
He told me he was now interviewing people for postitions open and most of the questions he was asking them involved div tags and CSS.
Ironic I thought, and told him my job was to now turn a very table-based website into a CSS and Div tag machine.
I asked for a book reference, something that would help me out, and he offered up the name Eric Meyer.
I went to B&N last night and bought the book Eric Meyer on CSS.
Very good book so far.
I find myself playing guinea pig with my site and trying to figure out how to change my workplace's site without doing a lot of damage along the way.
We shall see.

After this e-mail I remembered how I use to ride the bus in High School and hear commericals on the radio talking about Amazon.com and how it had the most books in the world. At the time I was facinated with HTML and how a website was built and I remember thinking how I could never work on a website so large. And now, I was e-mailing someone with an e-mail address that ended in @amazon.com and how It brought "real life" to my doorstep in a weird sort of way.

Blog's looking cool Sipper.
I like the columnar style. Funny, newspapers have used this idea for centuries, and it still works.
