Well yesterday was the 40th birthday of the internet.   The first use of it between two centers (Oct. 29 1969) lasted about 20 seconds before it crash. It has got better (?) sine then.   But, most of you don’t think of it as that old and that’s because prodacalls, that allowed things like email and domain names did show up until the late 80’s.   And the government finally allowed us geeks to use it.   After we were happily playing with it, the rest of world found out about it (Ok who was it that leak it) and it became cool. Gee for the good old days when you had to use a line of code to get on line and on a site. It kind of kept the riffraff out.

If your from the over 50 group, you remember the saying “Don’t trust any one over 30”.  
Well that same group (and some of you 40 something’s), may be now thinking, those young kids (30 something’s and under) wont hire me because I am over 40!   Hmmm, have you heard or though that before?   I don’t know if the current generation is passing us over because we older or not but, I do know that there seems to be a lot of us out here looking for work.  Come on, we survived the last recession (the state I was in was hit real hard and the town I was living at. Well it hit 25% employment).  Granted we were younger but, we are still the same persons.  We have gone thru work, business and personal problems and survived.   How about you joining a group of survivors “Gray Matters!” in LinkedIn and Face Book.
