The first is time. Running a system like Spunge.org takes time, especually at first. The other things that is required, is that a person be willing to learn new things. When I started spunge.org, I knew some basics, but really only knew a little. It has been a great opertunity that I hope will benefit me on a professional level.
Computers are a lot of fun.
It is the tinkering with them that I seem to enjoy. Give me a problem, or something that needs done, and I will do what I can to get it done. I might not know anything when I start, but by the time I end, I will know at least something. That tinkering and learning is what I get out of Spunge.org. The Internet is a very nifty place.
