More than once, I've been introduced as our television station's webmaster ... and more than once, I've offered a correction. There are a lot of skills, and a level of expertise that I associate with the phrase 'webmaster' ... skills and expertise in which I find myself lacking.
I prefer the job title 'Web Editor.' So, what's the difference?
I see a Webmaster as an IT professional that works on the internet and 'speaks' in HTML. I define a Web Editor as a News professional that works on the internet and 'speaks' in AP Style Manual.
Granted, this hardly seems a profound observation, or subject for consideration ... but, still, I'd like to know what you think.

Jimmy, whatever you are, you're a good one. :-)
I like the KWES web site and visit often. Looks nice, easy to navigate and good content. Well done.
Les, thanks for dropping in. I visit your site regularly. It offers a good perspective on television and broadcasting that I don't get on the other sites.
You have done a really good job at The Niner.com, Jeff ... keep it up.
