   RSS is not dying. It's just not based in the browser, and I'm fine with that. I use an RSS aggregation program, and if I really wanted to, there is open source software available to build and host my own RSS portal.

   I have to say, the world around us has some scary creatures in it. This, of course, being one high on that list. Definitely fodder for some terrifying nightmares.

   Thank you for your valuable feedback. I believe that there is a market for my skills, and that has been proven repeatedly. I have gotten work, based on my current website and projects I have done, and I'm sure I will continue to be able to

   Well of course not. Before I got that last year, I was shooting with a Canon PowerShot A640 for over two years. Just the XSi produces cleaner shots, because of the larger sensor.

   Thanks for the feedback. I am more of an application designer than an artsy one for sure. I guess I will have to start pursuing that angle a bit more in depth.

   While this is true, I am building for myself anyway. I'm using this project to test several pieces of new code I have constructed, and I have been using it to manage my own freelance work anyway.

    I seem to have caught your attention though. For someone who is not interested in buying my services, you seem rather worked up about my lack of marketing skills.

    I will have to start trying this approach. Thanks for the tip. That was one of the problems I had, was that it was so cheap.

    This is correct. I'm seeing what happens, and if I can get my bills off my back. My standard rate for work is $25/hr so I'm currently quite discounted, just to get some work quickly.

    I have been working towards creating passive income. One of the projects I am working on is a v1 of my own freelance business management tool, but that is still a few weeks from completion. And of course, I am keeping my chin up. As disturb

    Tried iStockPhoto. Applied twice with different images both times, and was rejected both times. The problem with iStockPhoto is that now all but the most obscure niches are filled, so it is difficult to even get in the door with them. Never

    Thanks for the suggestions. I've been through both rent-a-coder and odesk, and the big problem I found with bidding on projects is that most of them are scut work, and I can't compete with twenty other people from East Europe, Russia and As

    This is true. I was considering that might be an issue, to get recurring traffic. I have hope though that enough people bookmark the page to come back to that I can continue selling my time. Even a few hours a day is better than nothing. I

    I recall the article itself mentioned WONTFIX status in a bug tracker. Not helpful enough I know. I already did a search for bug and cash and money on HN.
