The question "Do you read blogs?" is particularly telling, especially if you're going to count a negative response as going against hiring this person. I don't want to overly generalize, but I know a lot of brilliant developers who pretty much never read books, blogs or articles because they are simply too busy delivering awesome stuff. Go ahead, ask the blog question, but make sure you analyze the response objectively, because even someone who doesn't read books might have something to teach you. -- Cédric -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "The Java Posse" group.
