That's true, but I've coded away in my bedroom before and it can get quite lonely. If I can't find anything I'll definitely be doing that though.

I'll also be graduating next year and would really appreciate the experience of working with a team.

I was thinking of something very similar the other day but in regards to bitcoins. They are very volatile at this stage and whenever they're in the public eye they either seem to increase or decrease in value. Perhaps somebody could perform a study as to a relation between the volume of bitcoin related search terms and it's market value.

Thank you so much for the overwelming response from the HN community. I will now spend the night going over all your responses. I'm going to book a counselling session through my university and hopefully they can give me some advice as to where to go from here.

Thanks so much

Imagine the potiental, using an iphone or android to connect users from around the world to a seemingly physical chess match. As a chess lover I think this is amazing

Thanks for the heads up.

I noticed your trying to read ruby files, goroya reads files using the markdown syntax so if you want code to be displayed properly the first line needs to start with '>'

Hi,

Essentially getting apache up and running and actually understanding the commands I'm using, other things are ssh, setting up FTP and another thing that daunts me incredibly is setting up the virtual host, I find it so easy to break things when I don't know what I'm doing.

There are probably a couple things I missed out on but a noob to ninja type ebook would be great.

Thanks a lot
