I'm a web designer, and recently started my own firm (3 years ago). During that time I was an undergraduate at a local college. After graduation most of my friends moved away but I stayed here to run my business full-time. It's been a little tough with the economy, but I'm doing well for myself. The hardest part, really, has been that all of my friends moved away after graduation.

So, it's been really nice to find this community online here, and I'm looking forward to chatting with some people. It would be nice to meet someone from my area, of course, but I'm not too worried if that doesn't happen.
