How to Become a Software Contractor
Convenient timing on this article - I'm strongly considering starting a contracting business in the new year and "How Do I Even Do That?" is at the top of my list of questions.<p>This article isn't as fully-featured as I might like (I mean, a step-by-step "Here's How Dan Hulton becomes an in-demand contractor" section would be <i>ideal</i>, but hey), but I really like the last section about: "In the chef's kitchen, the knife that can cut anything, cuts nothing."<p>One of the biggest pains I went through in my current job was setting up FileMaker databases to be read over the internet.  I've developed <i>extensive</i> expertise in this area, and was forced to learn from scratch, since there really doesn't exist much in the way of helpful advice <i>on</i> the internet.  Apparently, not many people do this.<p>I'll have to look into this as an avenue.
