I bought my first Self-Hosting Account today! Been doing BT for about 2 months, over the past 6 months. I'm going to work on my own Apps, and help others. I'm assuming Self-Hosting will fix some of the hosting-related problems I've been encountering. (e.g. updating the BT_config.txt file and having the device refresh automatically.) Too way too long to work through some issues with Xcode and Eclipse, but I'm stronger for it. While we all struggle with Xcode and Eclipse, my stronger suits are LAMP (Linux, Apache, MySQL and PHP). OK pasting and arranging Java / JSON / and AJAX snippets. I can help people with PHP and HTML Forms. Those are my favorite programming things. Another thing I do, is voice-over narrations for web videos - like demos and trainings. I hate watching a training video where half of it is bad spellings and backspacing! And the resultant gibberish audio conversation from the typer, that distracts from the learning. You record yourself doing the demo or training video, edit out the bad typing and other mis-steps in the video, write a script, and I'll voice the narration, with professional inflections. I'm old and travel, and work on the road just fine. I helped create the Internet, and it doesn't hide from me for long. I'm just a bit too young for Social Security, and too 'poor'... so I need to constantly work.

Couldn't find the Edit button. I'm from Minne-SNOW-da, via Los Angeles... now nomading around the UK and Europe, visiting ancestral homelands. Wrote my first computer program in 1972 (COBOL), and my most recent PHP script this afternoon. Been doing PHP/SQL for 7 years. Took 5-minutes to set up my BT Self-Hosted Server.

@UniApps ... a 5 minute install for the self-hosted ... you'll be handy around here :)))))) Seriously, I've found everyone has different strengths here but the most important thing is the willingness of people to help each other. Buzztouch generally rocks in this area, as you're probably aware after 90 odd posts! Cheers Darrel
