I have noticed that the people who seem to making the largest impact on technology fall in two basic working categories. Either the person works as a consultant/contractor for themselves or they work at a large well known tech company. In both cases, I think the differentiating factor is the person is responsible for thinking more than anything else. A consultant type has had the opportunity to establish a business around something he/she is passionate about. The big company employee is able to fill the role of researcher for future endeavors. I have a feeling that my preceived notion of what these folks actually do during the day is a little skewed. I hope one day I might be considered a person making an impact. Until then I am just going to be learning.
