Bill Cullifer: I am on the phone with Scott Fegette, Technical Product Manager for Dreamweaver at Adobe. Scott good afternoon and thanks for agreeing to the call.

Scott Fegette: No problem Bill how are you doing?

Bill Cullifer: I am doing well thanks. Scott why consider a career in the web profession?

Scott Fegette: [Inaudible] more than any time is the a perfect time to consider a career in the web profession, but I am not sure a couple of season following what is happening with some of print publications lately, but you know it is pretty clear that [Inaudible] is emerging as probably the premier medium for distributing information these days, as much as I love my old New York Times and Wall Street Journal deliveries that you know we are seeing a lot of traditional print publications starting to shut down just, because of the inefficiencies and they don’t reach the web offers and quite frankly I don’t see that going anywhere anyhow changing at any point in time in the near future anything it is just going to ramp up. Another really interesting development recently is just you know arguably some people are saying it is because of the iPhone, but I think it was inevitability anyway, but mobile devices are becoming increasingly more net aware, so and whereas about you know five eight years ago you need to learn the skills that you know WAP, WML variety of other tool set to build mobile specific experiences. These days you know the real selling point between the new mobile devices is that you get the real internet on your phone, not just a water down or hacked version of it, so you know as we are even seeing the devices start to change, but the technologies are largely the same, if you have sound background in web banners and good web designer development you know quite frankly I think there is going to be quite a job market for some time to come.

Bill Cullifer: Well said, I certainly appreciate your perspective on that and for your time today.

Scott Fegette: No problem right on.
