Been a long time

I've been quite busy with work but unfortunately, the nature of what I do means that I can't really blog about it.  Or at least, I have yet to figure out how to appropriately blog about it.

That said... it is the most interesting job I have had since when we were first working on XML support in Internet Explorer 5. (Back then I was helping define the XML DOM, XPath, and tons of other amazing things that people take for granted now.)  Working on S3 has taught me more about the reality of building and running distributed systems, than I can even imagine fitting in one book.  Working on hard problems with a great team, makes this one of my favorite jobs of all time.  (p.s. we are hiring...)
