Since the 90's, the Internet has embedded itself in our lives in ways we couldn't have imagined. Web programming is the best way to get our foot in the door. A programmer with little experience can produce a useful web application in a matter of hours. Not just playful or interesting, but something that can actually go into productive and live use. The only other environment where that is possible is the command line -- and managers never see programmers' command line tools.
Web-programming takes the creative Web-video campaign concept and pushes it one step further up the evolutionary marketing scale by integrating the message into a programming environment.
This concept is not an entirely new idea, in fact one of the most noted television commercial campaigns of 1991 was the Taster's Choice soap opera-like series of spots that wove the marketing message into a courtship relationship between two apartment neighbors. In an environment where information and entertainment blur, it seems like an ideal solution to capturing an audience's attention and interest, and creating a viral buzz that few products or services can generate by presenting a bulleted list of features.
While each new feature is supposed to make computer programing easier, it takes time to learn how to apply them effectively.
This makes this kind of career interesting as there's always something to discover.
However; you must commit yourself to learning the features of the language and technology.
It doesn't make any sense doing things the same old way and not opening your mind up to new ways.
Working with Visual Studio ASP.Net can be challenging to say the least from time to time.
This is due to the fact that web development requires a multitude of skills such as C#, VB.NET, HTML, CSS, SQL...
Of course, you could get by with coding HTML, then again even Web Designers need to learn about images, CSS, Scripting...
A programmer may be required to write software documentation, so writing skills are an asset to his/her vocation.
Programmers today, have a lot of learning to do, if they want to serve the companies that employ them.
That's why we get employed in the first place!!
Here are a few tips for learning:
* Attend User Groups
* Read Visual Studio magazines
* Work with other programmers
* Build a website
Watching video tutorials on your computer is another workable way to learn Visual Studio.This is the next best thing to attending a live seminar/discussion on your favorite subject.
The greatest bonus is that the videos can be played anytime of the day or night to provide fast and comfortable learning.
