Thanks for the input! I appreciate it!
I believe the basis for my first four ideas in the past was to make a profit. The reason why I never followed through with them is because I couldn't persistently work on something I wasn't passionate about. I want to make an impact. Thats why I am currently working on standUP.
I have watched some talks by him online, I'll check out his book. Thanks!
Thanks for the input! I believe the first four ideas derived just from the fact that I wanted to start a business for profit and if I acted upon them at the time they would have been lucrative but Im searching for something that I would be more passionate about. Potential profit in the future doesn't necessarily drive me. I want to make an impact.
Thats why Im currently working on standUP. It hasn't technically been done with the business model and structure I have plus all the features my competitors dont have. There is: http://demandprogress.org/
But they focus solely on issues of civil liberties, civil rights, and government reform.
But I appreciate the advice! Im working on a landing page right now with the option to sign up on waiting list or help fund! Thanks!
The overview is what you should be learning but 3k is way way too much. Every topic they are covering can be found on google or a decent book from Amazon. I suggest buying a cheap hostmonster account and learning some PHP. This tutorial is pretty good http://devzone.zend.com/6/php-101-php-for-the-absolute-begin...
Don't just focus on front end skills and think you don't have to learn how it works on the backend because a frontend is just something to look at it if doesn't have the server side component.
