    So i introduce myself, huh?

    Well let's see, I'm a college student who works part-time at a web consulting firm designing sites for for the likes of Gordon Food Service, Steelcase Furniture and Herman Miller Furniture.... Ok that pays the bills. I'm also a student. In my spare time i tend to blog a bit. Actually I've got a few questions for everyone about my blog, but i guess i can't ask them out right? I need to wait some amount of time before I can ask for a site to be reviewed? Go figure? Also I've purchased a few domains i intend to grow in the past few weeks. Of course I'll probably be blogging about that progress once I get rollin' on those projects. No news yet though. (Gotta do more than just blog. Let's get diversified, baby!)

    So yeah, bottom line I've been blogging since 2002 on a few different sites, as of about January of this year I've changed the scheme of things around to make a bit of money. That's just startin' now, and more info when I can fill everyone in on the "site to be reviewed" stuff.

    So i guess i'll go off answering random questions where I can put my $0.02 in? My skills and topics of interest include Wordpress blogs, CSS, .NET programming. Oh and if anyone is interested in Ultra Mobile PC's i'm addicted to em!

    That's about it for now, PM me or ask here if you have any other questions! Nice to meet you all!

    I'm going to be finishing my Information Systems degree in spring of 08. Info. Systems is basically computer science without the calculus :-D

    As far as freelancing vs. working at a firm, do both! I only make about $80 a week because i'm so busy I can only work two days. I actually try to pick up as many freelance jobs as I can, they pay so much better!

    (growing a few websites to make some cash also would be nice, and it's what i'm trying to do as well!)

    Ok so here's my gripe with it. It's 8 hours a week at $10 an hour. 2 days a week, two 4 hour shifts. Makes sense right....

    Ok so take 8 hours and making $80 or figure when I get a freelance job I've usually been able to get 35-50 an hour. so even at 8x35 that's 280! see my point.
