Four Steps to Google, Without a Degree
Fantastic.  The OP scored.As for you, the average reader, go/stay in school and get a degree.  Life throws all kinds of curves at you.  At 20-something it might be cool and trendy to be a modern hippie-techie drinking latte's and coding for Google, Facebook or whoever.  One day you might wake up in an entirely different landscape at thirty, fourty or fifty years of age and regret the fact that you did not take the time to complete a degree before your life got more complicated.  I've seen this happen.Not everyone is going to drop out of high school or college and launch a billion dollar company.Don't be a moron.  Get a degree.BTW, I am not just talking about CS degrees.  A friend of mine was rejected for a sales engineering job over someone with a BS in Architectural Landscaping.  He had years of experience as a technology developer, just didn't have a degree.  The large corporation a a strict requirement for BS degrees as a minimum, even if the degree was bullshit or unrelated.  He was told they wanted to hire him but could not due to the lack of a college degree.
