Recently, I’ve met a type of web worker I didn’t know existed. Everyone I know working the web has a passion for hypertext, a love of communication, and senses the “community” of the internet. But I suppose I’ve been lucky to meet people that shared that passion. There exists a population of people that “do” the web, but don’t “get” the web. People that build sites professionally from 9-to-5, but don’t have a personal site, and sometimes not even a personal computer. They take part in the web, but they’re only contributions are those tied to business ventures.

They’re an odd lot.
