Diversity in Web Design, there’s a lot different ways to do everything code, some right, some wrong, and some just different. That’s one of I’m not going to focus on that here though. What I am going to focus on is one of the coolest aspects of this industry, its open source community, from software, to different ways everyone is willing to share information. From the people designing the software to the people answering questions in forums, every one of them share a passion and a need to share their knowledge with others seeking it. It seems to be the common bond that everyone shares and learns from. As impressive as this is to me, I’m equally impressed when I think about where all this information is coming from. These are people in different countries with different cultures, languages, religions, and jobs. It’s kinda cool to think about how many different walks of life come together to create JavaScript libraries, tutorials, conferences, course work, and much more. Every time I post a question in a forum and someone answers (which they always do, and in a very polite manner as well) I have to wonder, what do they do. It’s common to form bonds of interest with people of other walks of life, but the magnitude of this industry really blows me away!
