SQL is pretty much self-documenting. But I still use hand-drawn diagrams showing how fields are related.

Whenever I see the word "monthly" on the web, I bookmark it and realize I'll probably never see it again.
one010101 | 15 years ago | on: Did you ever get a job you didn't apply for?
When I was young I never had to apply for jobs. They would come and find me. Come to think of it, that's how it still works today, with a difference. Now the jobs are very brief. I get a phone call and quickly respond, get paid OK. Back then I would work for a year or so after each phone call. Job applications? Sure, done dozens of them. Results? Nil. The only way I have ever gotten decent jobs was by knowing someone who knew someone offering a job, or by walking in the door and speaking with the owner about why I want to work for him/her.

What worries me about it is simply the fact that just a few single-bit errors can make the entire disk unusable. Backup, backup, backup!

I've certainly learned to copy my submissions to a text file!

Wouldn't it be better to be able to recover the text for storage so you can submit it later?

Keep going! You can't sell something you don't believe in! But don't try to make the v2.0 version before launching. Make sure v1 is something your identified customers will want and shove it out the door.

That's easy - a graphic designer! I am whiz-bang with code and databases but have neither the skill nor time to make it look pretty.
