Jen Simmons is back!
… and now she can finally concentrate on her web wisdom without all those Daily Edition diversions! (As much as I loved those.)
My new favorite informative podcast
I haven't heard Jen's other podcasts, but this one is off to a terrific start! I found the first episode so interesting that I ordered the guest's html5 book right away.
Jen seems to be a genius at asking great questions and illustrating them with real world down to earth examples. She really helped me understand what the problems are, and how these new tools can address them. I've been working at a pretty basic level building websites and web apps. I'm optimistic that Jen and her guests can help me get to the next level.
It also doesn't hurt that Jen sounds like a great person. I enjoyed her "company" via the podcast!
Excellent resource.
Another fantastic podcast from the 5by5 family. Bridging the gaps between engineering, design, and strategy, Jen Simmons is the perfect hostess for a show about the future of the web. Can't wait to see where this takes us, and how it will help me make smart decisions for the future. Thanks, Jen! …and thanks for bringing Jen back, Dan!
