Reading blogs like Patio11's have always made me optimistic about being able to work for myself (when I looked him up and saw "Bingo Card Creator" I immediately remembered a post from years back that he wrote about bringing that product to market).
If I am marketing myself for a full time job or a freelance gig, it seems like I need some kind of public personal built on social media to back up a resume. I don't have that kind of footprint, and I feel like I need to change that.
If I tweet a bunch, ask/answer a bunch of questions on Stack Exchange, and create some useful library for a fashionable language on Github, does that solve this problem? Or is that a total simplification?
