I would disagree completely with John's last statement. It is true that
there are a lot of people out there creating Web pages. However, very
few Web pages are well designed and most are just plain awful. The
reward is acheiving successful communication through a new media that
presents it's own benefits and challenges. In my experience, Web page
creation is just as challenging as document design and creation, and
just as rewarding.
