I have a question related to Dean's, but one step earlier in the process of career change. I joined the GIS list because I wanted to learn more about what GIS consists of and whether it would be an interesting next step for me. I've been a web developer since the hey day started, but have started to get (1) bored and (2) dispirited at all the commercialism. I've always been crazy about maps, and am trained as a linguist in 6 languages, so it seems that somehow all these things might come together nicely. BUT... I don't know where to start to find out if GIS is for me, and if so, how to go about learning it. Do I do some academic work, or just jump into the tools?
