Went to a job interview last Friday, for a "startup" that's been going for a couple of years already. They need a webmaster, somebody to do everything from site architecture to web app development to blog setup and maintenance to UI design. Sounds exactly like what I do, so I'm hopeful that I'll get a call this week. They do internet security work - more than that I can't say. Mostly because I don't know much more than that.

Turns out a lot of the skills they're looking for are things I've learned by doing LEGO-related websites, especially ILENN and BZP. So maybe doing LEGO sites will help get me a nicer long-term job (as opposed to the contract work I've been doing since November). It sure sounds a heckuva lot more interesting than what I'm doing now (which isn't bad, just kinda boring).

The good part would be getting into a really nice job and office environment (near the top of the tallest building in Portland - OMG the view rocks), the potential downside would be less time for BZP and LEGO stuff. It's always a tradeoff.

Hopefully writing about it won't jinx it.
