Hi everyone,
Unless you were one of the lucky few, you probably missed out on seeing a picture of 18 year old me with my most recent post. It turns out that I was storing the image in way too high resolution and was hitting a bandwidth limit with the folks over at Geocities.
The picture should now be viewable, sorry for the mixup.
—Pete
Are you kidding me? Take a look at my picture. If I’m not a genuine, bona fide nerd I’m not sure who is. I'm currently employed as the Marketing and Internet Platform Solutions, Portals and Applications Chief Architect at Hewlett Packard (try saying that 5 times fast) and write here about career best practices for techies. Why? Because I wish I'd had this kind of free advice earlier in my own career and now I'm trying to "pay it forward". See more in Who I Am and in Why Soft Skills.

NerdGuru posts are like candy to me. I was one of the fortunate few who opened yesterday’s post, as soon as it hit my Inbox, and saw an image of a young Pete J. Loved it! I appreciate this particular post. Many of us are passionate about work and find it difficult to get past emotion to focus on facts. –LM
