Re: Experienced ASP.NET Developer in Minneapolis

its nothing really, just searching the web for name, email address, etc... I
use this if get a resume that claims to be very high level.  i got one a few
days ago from someone teaching asp.net classes to college students. I found
some info about this person on the web regarding a recent project they
worked on, which told me their true experiences and i immediately set this
in my "review as a last resort" pile.
