Greeting everyone!
I'm Nick Walsh aka Lucidboomer. I'd like to offer a short story on who I am and how I got here.
I've been into computers since the Commodore 64 and VIC 20 days. I was on the internet in 1986.... participating heavily on the text based newsgroups. Began web design in 1992. I am a management analyst for a very large organization. My area is research, policy and strategic technology. I'm 53 already! Yikes! Where did the time go?
I do graphics design and web design for myself and a small circle of friends but I'm mostly interested now in developing a future in this business.
I was heading toward settling down in the Product Launch Zone until I ran into Lynn on her Podcast for "Internet Marketing Today". I decided to try it. I listened to the first four episodes and loved it! Lynn has her head on right for such a youngster Anyway... as a result of the incredibly valuable information I found on Lynn's sites I have unsubscribed from all the junk associated with Product Launch. My sense is that this forum is the way it's going to be for most intelligent marketers out there.
We are still in the very early stages of growth. I see very good things coming for people who create a niche for themselves in this genre.
