    Top 20 Trends in 2017 by Trend Hunter

    OFF-TOPIC 
    @SinisterLex Right now I do open source software development (I'm disabled and not physically well enough to work a normal job right now) and I'm flipping stuff from eBay to buyers on a forum. Occasionally, I write articles online. I'm also learning about copy/marketing, and thinking about...

    I dream of one day having a business that creates not only a product and experience, but a lifestyle (think Victoria's Secret) something that inspires awe and excitement like The Paradise (the business competition in that show was so fun)... but that's for later, when I have money and...

    @Xavier X pointing out that ebay takes a whopping $67 of that sale was simply a transition

    This is definitely true in a lot of cases, however I live way the hell out in the country. It takes over 30 mins to get to the post, and I can only go once a week. For me that 10% is game breaking. My first few have actually sold in the first couple of days on the forum and for more than they...

    The only thing is, you didn't really make $300 profit did you? ebay is taking at least $67 of that sale not to mention the money it cost you in gas and to ship... according to the rules (and it does appear to be true) ebay takes 10% of the total money made (shipping is no longer exempt) and...

    A good first step into game development would be to make game mods. It will teach you about audio, 3d modeling and animation, texturing, scripting, and loooot more. You can also make a little money off of mods if you want by charging a small fee for downloads or offering free but asking for...

    MARKETING 
    Not sure if this is welcome here, but I have some notes from a book I read at the library the other day. I can't remember what it was called I'll have to check next time...

    My Moleskine Notebook is in the Trash

    HOT! 
    I have a ton of those black three ring binders that I use; one for each field. This allows me to add more paper and change the order or add other documents and folders etc. I also have some random spiral and composition notebooks where I write things spontaneously when I don't have my binders...

    Planning My Future

    INTRO 
    I rather agree. I have a lot of fears about looking for a job right now, though. Most are probably limiting beliefs, but my health is a real one(I think...). I had been doing much better for a few months and then took a dive. I seem to be getting better again but who knows when it will change...

    Overseas Workers Taking Over Our IT Jobs

    There have already, for a long time, been a large outsourcing of development jobs especially being outsourced to India. India is being smart, they saw our need before and have been training many people to fill in those positions over many years. I don't think you should panic just yet, however I...

    Planning My Future

    INTRO 
    Well, I've been lurking for a few days, so I thought I might as well make an account. Guess I'll start with a brief background. When I was 14 I got my first introduction to programming through making game mods. I learned the very basics of programming by reading all of the game scripts and...
