Computers are just screwdrivers!

Computers do have one strong suit: they're unparalleled tools for writing, photography, programming, composing music, and creating art. It's the only reason to deal with the pain of owning one. [...] Computers aren't couture, they're screwdrivers. Your screwdriver rocks, and our screwdriver sucks. So what? They're screwdrivers. If you really want to convince us, stop talking about your screwdriver, and show us what you've created with it. - from Coding Horror.

It is indeed completely taken out of context (the Mac VS PC debate) but I like the screwdriver image. One of the latest thing I have done with my screwdriver (with the help of a friend) is Inline Search, which is featured in Wired today!

I have been an avid Wired reader for the past 20 years so that's something :P Who can I convince of what regarding the way I use my screwdriver(s)?

I have broken my blogging routine but that's well worth it!
