This sounds very interesting. Can give more details on "whisper to transcribe and make sense of long ramblings, turning a 20 minute voice memo from a car ride into a functional plan"? The apps that you use, and the workflow.
Here what I feel. Posterous v WP blog ( hosted on a custom domain and not *.wordpress.com)
Posterous : Pros
1. Very easy to set up.
2. Easy to put up photo albums (no need for plugins etc)
3. No need for upgrading etc. Posterous does that for you.
Cons:
1. Limited customization (themes, widgets etc)
2. Cannot put up ads
I think both cater to a different set of people/photos. I upload only those photos to Facebook which have a 'social' element - Birthdays, weekend trips with friends etc. But Flickr is more for photos which I click as a hobby and as a photo backup service.
I disagree. I moved here from Indiana for a job. The company flew me over here for the interview and also paid for relocation when I moved here. Same situation for all my friends. We are new college grads, so the situation might be different.
That was an awesome answer. Thanks. I did C as part of course and the rest because of interest.
VLSI is mainly software driven. I have worked with Hardware descriptive languages like Verilog.
As per the suggestions above, I have decided to take up an open source project and hone my software skills and then try for a job change.
