I totally agree with everyone saying that you should know how to market yourself. If you can't sell yourself then who will?
Blogging\twitting is a good way to get yourself out there.
I had two options - blog\answer Qs at SO\tweet\contribute to OS projects or choose entrepreneurship. I choose entrepreneurship because I thought rewards are much higher if things are able to click. Unfortunately, things have not clicked the way I had wanted but I am not giving up. Did I made a wrong decision? May be not.
Now, I am thinking about starting on a slow speed on blogging\tweeting so that I can get myself known.
I know few people who started with blogs and made contacts out of that. It is a good form of networking. These contacts landed them few consulting gigs which slowly turned out to be a multi-million dollar business per month. There is nothing like when things automatically fall into place.
