Comments on: Rock Star Programming http://www.journler.com/blog/2007/06/16/rock-star-programming/ Phil Dow on Journer on the Net Sat, 04 Feb 2012 17:09:32 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.2 By: Phil http://www.journler.com/blog/2007/06/16/rock-star-programming/#comment-61 Phil Sun, 17 Jun 2007 18:00:37 +0000 http://www.journler.com/blog/2007/06/16/rock-star-programming/#comment-61 =) Hmm. Is Elton John a rock star? He does have a band though, doesn't he? Nevertheless I think it's still a good counterexample. Another one would be <a href="http://quicksilver.blacktree.com/" rel="nofollow">Quicksilver</a>. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe Quicksilver is a one man project, and that app rocks. So it's definitely possible, but I think it's rare and and not easy to do. =) Hmm. Is Elton John a rock star? He does have a band though, doesn’t he?

You mean that guys like Elton John in his day didn't count as "rock stars" because they performed alone? “The dude on the piano singing into a mic has a good sound and sells a lot of records, but he doesn’t rock.” You mean that guys like Elton John in his day didn’t count as “rock stars” because they performed alone?
