			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Being in web development for over 5 years, I often wonder why its taken me so long to start a blog.</p>
<p>The answer is simple, though: <strong>greed</strong></p>
<p>I&#8217;ve been spending my time reading great blogs. I&#8217;ve been far more concerned with trying to pick something up, than to put something out. However, there have been many times I&#8217;ve found a &#8217;starting point&#8217; that had 60-70% of what I needed, but not everything. With SharePoint development gaining momentum, I thought a new blog would be a good opportunity to:</p>
<ol>
<li> Expand on ideas initially presented on other blogs</li>
<li>Share solutions I&#8217;ve come up with on projects related to my work at <a href="http://www.inin.com/" target="_blank">Interactive Intelligence</a></li>
<li>Wrap things up into solutions that non-developers will feel comfortable deploying</li>
</ol>
<p>I&#8217;ve got experience in other technologies related to web development, and so from time to time, when appropriate, I may branch away from SharePoint to hit up related topics such as C#, ASP.Net, JavaScript, CSS, and more. However, my goal here is to just put meat on the table to serve up for consumption. I&#8217;ve got a good list of starting topics, and so I&#8217;m excited to start getting to it.</p>
<p>Cheers.</p>
