ps : Disclaimer = initial thots... Ok, had about an hour to spare today so lightly browsed over a few books on asp.net I have so far. I'm starting to put the bigger picture together. So far I can conclude that web design ( including things like CSS, layouts, forms etc ) is just a 10% of the entire web spectrum. The rest is server side and client side coding. The web is quite interesting, I must say much more than end user apps/games. I remember when I started out on programming last year, I now understand how much I mis-judged it and a big thanks to the Silverlight journey. Agreed that frameworks and templates use is okay, acceptable and not a discussion issue given the recycling of code and fast deployments or econmical reasons. But do kenyan web devs create things like web services and if so any online implementation example to see? What protocols are in use ? Interesting times ahead on study. I'll pop the questions whenever I come across something interesting. As usual, am sharing me thots and corrections welcome. :-)
