Um… this question is still jumbled in my mind. I guess it has two parts…
1. I want to be able to get a good internship, at GE, Microsoft, Oracle, etc… what are some of the technologies that I need to learn in order to have a chance of getting one (XML, Networking, Databases… that kind of stuff.) I mean, when the recruiter asks “do you know this and this…” I want to be able to say YES!
and the second part of the question… to be an awesome, awesome webmaster, what are some of the things that I need to master, besides PHP, ASP, CGIs (which I’m scared of…) Basically I want to be able to do anything, set up a shopping cart, chatrooms, etc.
um, and I really need to learn some stuff about networks… I need to buy a router, and I’m just lost. Do you guys know where I can find information on things like setting up a webserver, setting up networks, etc?
thanks
Raf
