Of course, most developers don't own their code, and aren't at
liberty to
share it. And as with the web-site discussion, who has time to write
code
strictly for resume/interview purposes? (Well, the person looking
for a
job should, I suppose). I have had people ask to see sites I built.
I
typically try to stress that in all cases I have worked in a team, I
can't
take credit for the graphic design/layout, and the Intranets I've
worked on
are much more interesting.
