Mind you, I'm not an expert. Actually, I'm a newbe/amateur programmer =
and I've received 2 job offers just because I put some lines of code =
with sinatra and sqlite on github. Of course I didn't take the job =
because I'm *not* a programmer.

However, in my view apart from your own projects, it would "pay a lot" =
to get active and involved with current "hot projects" like octopress =
(instead building your own static website generator), nokogiri (ruby =
gem), ROR, spree (e-commerce solution) and so on. As for your own =
project, I'd do gladly something *I need* not something just for the =
sake of doing it.

Panagiotis (atmosx) Atmatzidis
