Your post could use some more content - try turning each of your entries into a heading, and then writing a paragraph(or two) underneath each with your reasoning for why that entry deserved to be a heading. "Go mobile. Make your website work on a mobile phone (www.giggig.co.uk/mobile) Make a Mobile App." doesn't really make me think "I need to go out and do that".

The correct term is 'wannabe'.

I'm not going to comment on number 1.

I suggest you proof-read it, and spell check it as well. I don't really think Hacking has much of anything to do with becoming a programmer. Maybe a script-kiddie.

"good look becoming a programmer"

"... don't bother becoing a programmer."

Just a few typo's I noticed.

I have chosen these 3 because I am bias to .NET, and it is the biggest Software development Language.

Is it? News to me... (Back up your statement)

You will need PHP to create Dynamic Web Applications.

Good advice, god knows how one would develop a web application without PHP! (</sarcasm>)

HTML is the core Web Programming language.

HTML is not a programming language. HyperText Markup Language.

I think it's a shame you can't just post them here, & actually be a part of our community. Instead you would rather camp & leech visitors just for your blog...

Well shit. I have a blog as well, that isn't on this site. The leech visitors part I can understand, but it's alright to have my own blog right?

I am not trying to 'steel' all of the visitors. That is why I have links back to DIC and MSDN and CodeProject etc. See the Left naviagtion bar.

I have taken all of your comments in to consideration so please can you take another look and see if it meets your expectations

I don't normally follow links, so I'm not reading what you have to say.

There is a difference between having a blog (& even promoting your blog), & flat out starting a topic that's actually very interesting, that only points to your blog.

I don't see why you can't post the content here... you could even point it back to your blog.

That's what I was thinking.

I second this.. that and if you wanted me to read it you should have just posted it here and cited the location.

Very good point my friend.

Number 1 .NET (C Basic, C#, C++) Number 2 PHP number 3 HTML.

I'm afraid I kind of stopped paying attention after this. Since "C Basic" isn't part of .NET and listing the Cs really misses the point of the thing. HTML is rudimentary, saying HTML is needed for web development is a little like saying letters are required for word processing.

Getting it right in the opening; that's a good tip, I think.

Also wasn't this an actual post from Tech Republic about a month back?

Let me look for the link. I mean this was a real familiar read.

edit - here it is http://blogs.techrep...10things/?p=643

Of course the wording is different, but the point is the same.
