If you're concerned about a having a portfolio, then you should work on some open source projects. There are numerous open source Ruby on Rails projects to which you could contribute. Your contributions there would not only give you a portfolio of work to show potential employers, but they would expose you to other programmers who may know of a position to which you could apply. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
