late night thoughts

So far I've made $8.72 just from the ads alone on this site. That is almost enough to pay for the domain name for a whole year! I really don't know how to get more traffic to the site, but I figure that as long as I keep writing interesting things, people will want to read them, right?

I was inspired today by a post from idevblogaday.com. The post was titles "On being self taught", and really spoke to me and where I am in my development career right now. I would definitely check it out if you have some time, and would like to see what it's like being out in the wild and being self employed. I hope to be there someday, and it's great to read about developers looking back to a time that I can relate to now.

I made a list of goals today, but they are stuck in dropbox somewhere and I can't be bothered to get to the file. I am in the middle of transferring data over to my new Macbook Air, which I picked up today. I have been eyeing these machines for a while, and decided today that I was going to get one for myself and give my Macbook Pro to Shannon, my fiancé, so she has a computer to use at school. Win win :)
