i used to read his blog quite often and thought well if he's gonna be blogging for you should be more of the same great information...

turns out i got even more than i expected! keep up the good work...

Even though the poll is about "How do you find us?", I thought I would write this anyway, on "How I find you personally"

Even though you can't have one source for all information, there are sites out there that you just keep coming back too. InsideRIA I guess is on of them. I have it on my iGoogle page, and it is there as I'm always trying to here the buzz.

I like to think of my self as a seasoned developer, but what does that mean with technology changing all the time, this is why sites like this are needed.

The good thing about insideRIA is that it is a mega-hub when it comes to voices in the RIA world of things. I'm pretty sure that if I was to ask a question to one of the authors, if they didn't know the answer they would traverse around until they got it, and vice-versa with the commentors. This shows to me that there is a certain level of respect and trust on this site, which makes it even more valuable.

The diversity of content is great as well, even though I develop mainly in Adobe RIA products, I still like to look over the fence to see what's happening next door.

So Rich and the team, keep up the good work, and even though I'm down in Australia I still connected because of you all,

Cheers,
