Awww! Twinkle twinkle little star always goes down well with everyone though.

LOL i'm like that alot too. =P Which might explain my slow learning at guitar! i'll pick it up and play for 5 mins then i get bored and have to do something else hehe. Im learning acoustic guitar but have an electric one too, somewhere it's been gathering dust in the wardrobe =]

Well web development is a broad term. I usually call myself a software engineer because that's what I do -- I don't do web design, I don't do SEO optimization etc. I'm purely writing the software. It just happens to run on the web! So just make sure the "web dev" course is actually what you want. If all they do is teach you some HTML, then it's probably not worth your time.

But the lines are getting blurred. Even if you write desktop software, chances are that you're gonna be interacting with the cloud somehow. So if you do any development at all you're gonna be learning the whole range of skills anyway. And depending on your technology stack (Java? .NET?) you'll be able to easily transition to writing web apps if you wanted to.

I could give you some free space on my server if you'd like. It doesn't have any control panels or anything though, you'd just get a db and then SFTP access to upload files.

nice, same here. Well ups and downs each week, but it's progress. =]

oh yeah i love guitar, i'm just starting to learn to play now and i love listening. Do you play?

Ah cool.

I do the backend stuff, too. Leave the designing to the artsy folk lol. I do it professionally. Lately I've been building SAAS products, so lots of work with scalability and all that fun stuff.

PHP (and related technology stack) is my specialty.

Thanks you too! How are you? x

Awesome! Do you have a website? -- you should PM me the link.
