You're right, it did sound good, but I kept thinking to myself, I need to put my finger on what's wrong with this. Thank you. <br><br>Yes, being dogmatic stifles innovation. But you also need a baseline, and you also need to be 'cognizant of where you differentiate', not random. GAAP - why bother? Web standards - why leverage when we can reinvent? Three tiered architecture - you're kidding right? ...use best practices, but listen for real opportunities to differentiate in the market...</p>Kam StewartWed, 02 Sep 2009 18:27:07 -0000
