Working as ER nurse: 36 hrs per week<p>Working 20-30 hrs per week on www.nomadnurse.com : Online tools for traveling/contract nurses<p>Right now, it's just a landing page, but my goal is to have a place for travel/contract nurses to review where they've worked, a place to review recruiters/companies, a forum, job postings and tools to help decrease the reams of paperwork that travel nurses have to fill out for every 3 month contract and for every state license they apply for.
I quit my job six weeks ago. I've had an idea for a web site sitting in the back of my brain for several years now. Amazingly, no one else has done it. I put up an ad on craigslist asking for someone to pair-program with me. We've been pairing 4-5 days a week.<p>We expect to go live next week.<p>I'm scheduled to start a Ph.D. in another six weeks. I could delay. It's a tough choice. Getting my first toe in the entrepreneurial water has been exciting and fulfilling. I'm getting to do things "the way I always wanted to".
Yup, I'm still studenting, and have a long way to go. I wonder if all these start-up opportunities and communities will still be around when I finish college...
Living in cheap asian countries on savings from my grad school year. Trying to develop AI that isn't Good Old Fashionned AI. Learning music. Learning Turkish. Biology. Reading.
I'm doing lighting design for a band. We're leaving for Europe in a couple days. I'm also trying to develop the next generation of stage lighting controllers.
Would also be interesting to see how many people are working in tech vs. other fields. I definitely get the feeling that I'm one of the few people here in a non-computer-related area.
Working as a corporate tool. Got a verbal offer (would need to negotiate my comp) to work with some really bright guys again at a startup. Debating what to do, asking myself why am I debating what to do...
Just quit my office job. I'm going to France in July to spend two months cycling. When I come back I am intending to start a startup (though I still have a few ideas I am trying to decide between). I will probably be working part time as well.
Working at a regular consulting company.<p>In my weekends, I'm trying to marshall what resources I can to learn other things.<p>Right now, I'm playing with SproutCore, but have been deflected in setting up Django to serve as a back-end, and I'm <i>finally</i> learning some Python, and I'm really impressed with it.
I'm interning at Sun, volunteering with Miro, and taking summer classes.<p>I'll be getting my BS after a little over two years in school and as one of those “big picture” people, have become increasingly more focused on what I'm going to do once December rolls around.
Working on scalability of an RDF server at an established semantic web company. Enjoying going to moffet field every day. Not enjoying lack of free time as I finish prototypes of my own project.
