From time to time I think about the exciting and fantastic industry we are in. I also think back to when I just got involved in the community where it was the never ending pursuit to find more Anders Heijlsberg videos. A Hero in the software development world!

We get to play with so many different technologies such Silverlight, Windows Presentation Foundation, Windows Workflow and so many more. We get to do so many various things such as develop games, enable companies to work more efficiently and easier, code applications to make our lives easier and just code for the sake of writing a hello world application in a language we just stumbled upon.

The other awesome thing about our industry… the community. We have heroes such as Scott Hanselman, Phil Haack, Rob Conery and Jeff Atwood, just to name a few.

We get to be creative, solve problems and best of all, do it in teams or on our own. Listen to music while we are doing it!
