Tools! Something the end user [often] never sees, yet benefits from. I'm fascinated with windows forms, gui toolkits, things like Qt, wxWindows, .NET, Mono, and all sorts of windowing frameworks. Further, I like being able to build an application that you can use to create that data for your data-driven game. As I finish school here in the next two weeks, trying to find a job, I'm taking preference to those looking for tools programmers, cause that's right where I wanna be.
