    Where to draw the line?

    MINDSET 
    You know what's funny about that "lesson"? We've been to the moon. So much for "limit". :smug2:

    Which is the the better membership structure?

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Something like a 12 month "contract" is more likely to scare away people than to be welcoming. When you're joining a gym would you rather it be you paying month by month (or an automatic thing each month) or you have to pay for the entire year even if you get injured or something and cannot use...

    VIPWithMe.com Status Update

    I was actually wondering about this a few weeks back. Good to see it's still on track!

    Dating.....Fastlane style!!

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Kind of off topic but still ties in a bit with what Russ was talking about. It's amazing that when you remove appearance and what not out of the equation for a first impression you truly learn about people. Honestly, my 2 closest friends I first talked to online for a while before meeting them...

    TV, Radio, or silence in the office?

    Firstly, don't bother mimicing the environment of other successful people. I'm sure you can find an example for every type of environment. Surely the people who started projects as a hobby that turned into something more would have things like tv\music\radio on. What you need to do is to...

    Passion or a Paycheck?

    MINDSET 
    I think the problem is realizing the difference between passion (what I consider "needing") and wanting. Too few people know what they're passionate about and far too many people focus on wants. Wants develop with outside influence and have little push to chase them. If an opportunity presents...

    Facebook advancing beyond Google?

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    I understand then. Yeah, I don't really use Facebook for anything than to keep up to date with whats new in some friends lives. Not the place where I try to make conversation or anything so anything that I put on there I'd have no problem sharing in person (except some PM's on in...). So I...

    Facebook advancing beyond Google?

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Bond why does it matter if they can access your information on FB? Most (probably all?) information you'd willingly distribute in a person to person conversation so why does this medium make you nervous? Frankly, being able to get information like this is in a way great because it's very easy...

    What's on your Bucket List?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    Stuff I want to have: a cabin by a lake that is more or less secluded. :) Hmm... this one I have a tough time on because honestly I don't really want much in terms of material things. Obviously I'd buy other things, but this is the only real goal for a "thing" that I (think) would make me...

    Hello Names Robert Schwarz

    Robert, You stated you did this before, but lacked the money to buy "better computers". Out of curiosity what sort of games would you be planning to run on the computers? The absolute newest games online? Or older single player (or even multi-player) games? These computers would be the only...

    finding a good programmer?

    Definitely go and talk to the computer science teachers and find out who does a lot of programming OUTSIDE the class. Don't worry about just those who get good grades, but don't do anything outside of class. It is very important to get someone that loves it. On a side note any chance you can...

    coding advice...

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    I agree, they started it by themselves, but these guys didn't just start learning to program and in a few months make it. These guys had years of background learning on their own simply because they loved to do it. Not a few months as they made it. Yes, there are issues that would be outside...

    coding advice...

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    In addition to what Lighthouse said, do some research on the people who started all those companies you mentioned. Just about every single one of them (minus Ebay) had people with years and years of computer\web experience before embarking on it. On that note, many of those could "afford" to...

    coding advice...

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    I'll send ya a PM later to elaborate on this. Please just don't think I'm talking out my a$$ though. I've been programming since 9 or 10, but not a "real" language until 12. When you first learn to program (especially an OOP language in my experience) it feels like you know all there could be...

    coding advice...

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Sorry dude, but this is a VERY ignorant statement. Being able to just make the same thing appear on the screen doesn't equate to being on par. You'll learn soon enough if your web app becomes popular.

    Today I became a man

    OFF-TOPIC 
    This is SO true. Even though their control sucks (I know, I moved out at 18 too) it is miles and miles ahead of a parent who is indifferent. I had a friend who was going through a lot of shit in her life and ended up trying coke. She eventually went to her mom for support\to listen. You know...

    You on the Internet

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Frankly most of this information is readily available for anyone who truly wants it. Surely, becoming active in "social media" things could make it a bit easier, but someone wants it they will find it anyways. So, yes, I think you're a bit paranoid. On the note, what you've mentioned opting...

    im doing it.............Obama

    @Russ, it's amazing that most of the stuff you mentioned (i.e. being negative; attract negative people) has been part of revelations I've had over the past year(ish) - some of it has also made me realize some things I still need to work on. :smug2: Step one - Overcoming the constant...
