You did it. You started your own project, delivered a working solution, even got traction from the community. It's all happening, and it's happening pretty fast. All your hopes and dreams came true. The feeling of relief should be imminent, but there are no signs of that happening any time soon... The journey has only just begun.…

As software is dominating our modern society in all regards, there are various practices, methodologies and business models surrounding its evolution; although the holy grail of software development could be open source.

We have to make our tech community great again. We have to rebuild our industry. And we have a long way to go. We are just in such serious trouble because we've gone down the wrong path.

Drawing on cave walls was one of those definitive moments where our ancestors showed superior intellect. Since then, art forms have been an integral part of our expression as a species, translating the human condition into tangible objects and experiences.

How many apps have come and gone? How many developers have had their moment, shining under the public spotlight as an example of ingenuity and achievement, only to be absorbed and forgotten by the monolithic machine we call “big business”? What is excellent one day becomes obsolete the next. As a result, users experience our products on a superficial level and have no problem discarding in an instant what might have taken years to create. Is this the only way things can be?…

We live in a century of change. But so was said for the 20th and the 19th century… Every era has a different focus, either it may be socio-political change, economics or industry. This century seems to have a focus on high tech, especially computerized tech. The Web is a high profile product of our computerized tech, leading innovation in all its parts. It is our responsibility to go through this time with a foresight of what we want to achieve and how we’re going to get there.…
