Re:Google+ Now The Top Free App In The Apple App Store on Wednesday July 20, 2011 @11:22AM (#2785915)
Since google officially announced google+ the linkedin shares rose by about 17.6%(as of 07/20/11). I wonder when those Wall Street guys wake up and see google+ as a real threat to Linkedin

Most of you will know it already, but Steve Job's commencement speech at Stanford speaks in essence about finding the 'right' path as well: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UF8uR6Z6KLc

Re:Why Google+ is Poised to Fail on Friday July 15, 2011 @11:44AM (#2767796)
Why are so many people comparing g+ to facebook? Isn't it more of threat to sites such as linkedin? Google+ imho asks what interests you and facebook asks who are you.
The fact that you put up this question might show that once you agree to the offer you will always ask yourself whether you could have earned more at another place. So only agree to the offer if this will not bother you for the rest of your time being there. Plus -as already mentioned here by others- what is your upside potential? Are you going to learn something new? If the chances are low that you might learn something new and you can't get your head around earning less than average, I believe you already know the answer.

Just a short note: I think that its just awesome that you want to learn how to program. (I assume that you are a girl). We need way more female builders!
