It’s been a while since I posted here but I have been working on several things all at the same time.
Bhavesh is giving away a personal copy of his premium theme - WP Remix. He is in a good mood for Christmas.
For those of you who are new to CMS (Content Management System) particulary Wordpress, I encourage you to take a look at this theme. I would not even consider it as just a WP Theme but I consider it a ‘platform’. There are several page variation in this theme that is worthwhile for novice and experience WP users. I am a big fan of Brian Gardner’s Revolution Theme but WP Remix basically gave you all possible page options imaginable to create your website. It’s taking a step towards fully customized website that does not make your website ‘bloggish’

Back during the hey days of the dotcom era, every kid on the block want to be a MSCE (Microsoft Certified Engineer). They get into the training and get the paper to show their employers and voila, they make roughly between $35 to $100 per hour. But are they really ‘IT engineers’? Then at some point in time, they decided that they could earn the same amount the consultants are paying them to do the work they do?
Unfortunately, not everyone is cut to be a consultant. You’re most of the time, on your own. Yes you can work on your own time, be your own boss. But majority of the people who decided to go to this business found out that there’s more to it.
I was at TechRepublic’s website and I read an article by Erik Eckel on the challenges of being a consultant. Not to mention the challenge of making sure your spouse understood why you’re playing in front of the computer doing ‘research’ and not washing the dishes.
