Similar experience here, except that I would clarify that while they learn them on their job, any engineer worth their weight in salt I've ever come across does so by googling and when they google, they're coming across some of the more well known blogs and on-line resources like ALA. So, while they might not "follow" one of these, they are at least engaging with them. > [...]That said, I think it's safe to assume that the 33,000 > respondents are pretty representative of the worlds *good* web > designers and developers.
