Common Ground
Sometimes I wonder if it’s worthwhile trying to find common ground between the web and the ‘Enterprisey Guys’ with their Temple of Complexity.
Maybe we’re better off just letting them have the Systems Integration work, and we’ll keep the fun stuff. I’d much rather build a neat new web application than tie some billing system on an AS-400 to a printing system on a zSeries…

How about we just take those things which are supposed to be “enterprise” and implement in a way that makes them useful and a joy to use while making them easier for developers to create and maintain. Oh wait, that’s what we’re doing already. ;-)
