Vince Ritter: The silence of the blog
You see, I love working on things behind the scenes. I love it because I get to touch a handful of people’s lives in a meaningful way. I don’t need to blog about it… all I need to do is bring myself and deliver what I do. That’s it.

I am happiest when I open my code editor and create something. I am happy that whoever I work with is happy with the results… and I am happy when those results speak and get in the hands of a handful others (maybe just used internally, who knows).
