Just wanted to say HI. I found your blog a few days ago on Technorati and have been reading it over the past few days.

There are probably some people out there with all these skills, and they obviously make a fortune for it.
Such job postings make it clear that there are still clueless people trying to make it on the internet business landscape.

I think they are not sure what they want. Just included what ever they have heard of. Seems like one employee is supposed to do all the work. I think a person needs more specialized skill and lesser specific skill.

Maybe they are are looking for a new CEO. :)

I don't think it is impossible. I have known folks who managed all that. Just I don't see them as working for someone else :-)

that may seem impossible but believe me with the competition rising this is nothing. I have seen guys at working at staggering low salaries with more quality skills you have mentioned above.
