I Can't Believe How Far I've ComeSubmitted by Jean E. Gazis on Thu, 2007-05-03 14:39.
I started my first Drupal site around mid-January (its first archive item is dated 1/15), and now I have about half a dozen sites in the works. Some of them are even fairly complete – not that I couldn't think of future bells and whistles to add. I've learned a lot about Drupal in a pretty short time, and a fair amount of CSS and general web structure stuff as well. And I've been enjoying it! ---------------------------------------- Addendum: someone pointed out that the above sounds as if I just got started in online development, period. While it's true that the only formal computer training I've ever had was two half days of Introduction to Lotus 1-2-3 in the mid-1980s, as you can see from my portfolio, I have a great deal of hands-on experience with all kinds of online and offline applications. I have been involved in corporate web-related work since the early 1990s, including promoting online advertising, developing web pages, and more. I have also been an active member of various online communities since the late '90s. So I should have said, a fair amount of stuff - beyond what I already knew. I tend to think of myself as a generalist who "gets" tech, rather than a techie geek, but as a matter of fact, I've always been the one colleagues come to for help getting things done on computers. But enough about me. It's really a great strength of Drupal that it is possible to ramp up one's skills so fast - it should be very easy for the end-user of a Drupal site to update the site's content once the structure has been laid down by someone more knowledgeable.
