Web Development vs Application Development
Posted on August 7, 2007 by Ben Cecka
As I gear up for new feature requests at work and begin digging into more obscure code on my screen, I often get asked by co-workers if what I’m doing is any different than when a software company writes applications for Windows. My short answer is typically: No, it’s not.
An even better answer can be found by reading A Great Web Developer is a Great Application Developer. Both styles of development have their benefits and drawbacks, but having a well-rounded background is what’s best when designing new projects. I’d highly recommend reading through that entire post if you’re interested in development of any kind. In the least, it will move you to asking the right questions.

I’ve given up trying to restart my web dev days. Sadly, I’ve even canceled my present hosting. I will pass my crown to you.
