Fw: handhelds, and really scary

>>>>Is there still room (or need) for the simple, plain-vanilla web designer
to make a few bucks doing sites for small businesses? Should I give up
this business or make a valiant attempt to get with the program?<<<

As was stated elsewhere, there's still time to just create HTML only web
sites for new bsinesses.  With millions of new surfers arriving yearly,
there's going to be growth for quite awhile.

In the long run, as technology advances, you should probably try to keep up.
This is not an industry...or even a time in history...to consider a plan of
learning and then resting on that knowledge.   In every field with a
relationship to technology we seem to be opening new doors daily.

I often liken the Web to  the US California Gold Rush: a frontier with a
possibiltiy of striking it rich where the rules are based on doing what
works at the moment.  We shouldn't forget, however, that the Internet is an
even bigger network, linking millions of human minds in a way never before
seen in history.  With that many people thinking, planning, experimenting,
inventing....well, I think we are going to be in a state fo constant change
and growth for many decades to come...:)
