Dave Johnson on open web technologies, social software and Java

More on the balancing act.

Prompted by Dan Sickles' post on side projects and The Hacker Ethic (clearly a book which I need to add to my queue), Russell writes about balancing free-time tinkering and open source development with the other parts of life. I like this part:
Russell Beattie: Like I've told my wife (and this is true) there's not a single technology that I've ever started messing around with in my spare time that I eventually didn't use for work or even to get a new job. Linux and Java for me were like that... I was doing M$ VB work until I decided one day to install a Linux box at home then started looking at Java as a way to program for it... the rest is history. All this mobile stuff that I'm obsessed about now is the same thing. Blogging too. Hopefully it'll come back around for me.
