Regarding the site, I made it in one sitting as a placeholder for my domain. I use the domain mostly for my personal email and giving my apps a proper domain name I control rather than an IP address or a domain name I don't control (e.g. herokuapps.com).

I haven't put much thought into marketing myself but maybe I should. Just never thought it would be worth it.

That article about free high education in Germany a few weeks ago had me thinking about pursuing a Master's in Germany but I haven't pursued it.

Thanks for the comment. I like each of the points you've raised and if I want a change your advice sounds like a nice start.
