It's weird because it's a crop job. On my old site, the paragraph was longer and i cut it down to fit in the space i had.



i could say without this technology, there would be no...

....pizza? dreadlocks? Joan Rivers?

And the resume thing became a long discussion between a friend and me the other night. He mentioned the one-page thing, then did some research and realized that the one-page theory was a standard in the late 90’s.

My mistake. I started reading up on it a little and found the same thing, that resumes are getting longer for people with lots of experience or who are working in certain fields. I suppose I should have expected as much, as I haven't submitted a resume anywhere in about six years.

I think, too, that it all depends on what you’re doing with the resume. If you’re posting it online where you’re trying to get an IT job and you don’t care if you land a job writing code, or doing database administration, or helpdesk work, or whatever, then having a resume displaying all those skills (if a person has them) is okay. But if you’re interviewing for a job where all you’ll be doing is pounding out C# code all day in a cubical, listing helpdesk experience etc. is most likely stuff they don’t care to see as it just clutters up the resume.

Anyway, when one person says the site is too busy, I take it with a grain of salt, but when pretty much everybody I talk with thinks it’s too clutters, then I have to step back and reevaluate my position. I'll reduce the clutter soon.
