I have found that a lot of the people on mylot have SKILLS! There are people who build websites and do programming functions etc. Most of whom have taught themselves these things without ever stepping into a classroom for these skills. I too am self taught, couple that with being self employed with my own computer mktg business and I don't have the greatest employment references in the world but my skills far outstrip those of other people who do get the jobs that I often have applied for also. Their loss!

Yeah me too. I started tinkering with computers when the operating was still dos hehe. Playing around with different scripting languages, content management systems, etc., all helped when I started working in an IT company. Being self taught is definitely a plus for me.
