My favorite part is the tongue in cheek title for Tim Berner-Lee: "Web Developer". That's an understatement (as well as a perfectly accurate one).

  "Web Developer" as in "Developed the Web," I guess..
  • hna0002 14y ago
    Or 'THE Web Developer'
    • creativityhurts 14y ago
      The Original Web Developer. Should have been Web Creator though.

        I think you might have missed the point.

  "Tim Berners-Lee - Mammal" No seriously, TimBL should need no further title, given their audience ;)

    It was irony.

    "Tim Berners-Lee - Tim Berners-Lee"
    • ralfd 14y ago
      Sir Tim Berners-Lee.

  Maybe they should have added "The" in front of the title.

  If I may digress a bit, I've always wondered why one is more inclined to say 'systems programmer' rather than 'systems developer'.

    The web is constantly being developed and changing, a system does not evolve as quickly and is not in a constant state of development. That would be my guess anyways.

      I always thought that the choice of "developer" versus "programmer" swung on how multidisciplinary you had to be in order to be effective.

        I completely agree. I call myself a "web developer" because that's the most accurate description of what I do. "web programmer", "software engineer", and "systems engineer" are all too narrow. On top of programming, I also do system ops, ui design, customer service (and client service), project management. Developing a web site takes a lot more than programming, especially if the team is small.

  Glad I kept "Web Developer" in my business card all these years. Payback time
