I am a Web Developer. You got a problem with that? I didn't choose the title you know.

# don't have a problem
as long as you have actually written some html or have actually designed a layout.

if you still call yourself a web developer and all you have done is written copy (in word) you can go get some hummus and come back

Web Programmer = guys like the Apache guys as far as I am concerned.

# Nope
HTML is content with some formatting information (ie. a document), in the same that a Word or PDF file is a document.

# I
managed to get my job title changed to Senior Developer from Web Developer... too pigeonholed for my liking. And yes, HTML is a language of sorts. Though not in the programming sense....
