I have suffered from this sort of paralysis for several years before I got off the ground and did something. But it is not easy, mind you. You need to constantly be doing something and learning from books, Internet and so on. There is no easy answer. You have to let this thought brood in your brain just like the romance sentiments young people have towards girls and vice versa. All the time you are thinking of it and one day you will get to know what to do. Nobody needs to tell you. You feel the answer in your gut. Just like lovers meet and stay in touch, you need to constantly learn and upgrade your skills and look at the source of popular open source projects. Also gain familiarity with a very good OS. Linux is fine to begin with but if you really want to do great things you need to graduate out of linux in a year or two. -Girish -- Gayatri Hitech http://gayatri-hitech.com [email protected] _______________________________________________ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
