A break in the silence, and a true story

My last post here was more than a year ago. In the meantime, I found a wonderful life partner, and a good job.  Both fit what I need closely . In short, I've been busy with better things than blogging . Things are looking up in my neck of the woods, big-time. It's how I got the job that I am going to describe here.

We have to save them from technical stuff.  Forever! It should be possible for a rather tech ignorant business analyst to use our services to create a web application to do exactly what he needs it to do , with little or no training, entirely intuitively, point and click.  Does this mean c...
