(^-^'' on the internet it's impossible to tell if you're being sarcastic or not. Actually, I stopped because I have no idea how one would go about doing non-tcpip Networking without feeling like a shallow hypocrite who makes friends to use friends. If I'm motivated enough to find out how people do it and how introverts/nerds learn to do it, I'll probably write about it sometime and submit it everywhere like the attention whore that i am...)

A good hack is to try to give without expecting anything in return. Volunteer, for instance. Make stuff for free. When I was getting started doing freelancing, I made free websites for nonprofits to get practice, which actually turned into lots of money.

No sarcasm or any other negative stuff. I really asked. I even bookmarked http://news.ycombinator.com/threads?id=Chocobean

Actually I rewrote my comment to make it not sound sarcastic as the v0.9 did sound that way to me. Looks like I didn't do a very good job of v1.0 either. ;) But believe me.
