What is this blog all about?

The Short Version

That’s a damn fine question:

“Code My Own Road is about my experiments with multiple streams of income. It’s a place where I share everything about my little side projects that I’m tinkering with, the technologies I’m using, and everything that’s involved with creating multiple streams of income.”

My name is Josh Kohlbach, I’m a web developer, and this is my blog. Here you’ll find light-hearted stories with a lesson about my experiments in creating multiple streams of income. I also give tips and strategies on creating successful websites.

To be the first to get my case studies, experiments, interviews, tips and strategies plus loads more consider subscribing to Code My Own Road via RSS.

The Long Version

I would describe myself as a bit of an odd-ball ideas person.

I was the kid who also took his mechanical pencils apart and put them back together again just for fun. All of my school report cards vehemently said “Joshua is academically bright, but easily distracted”.

Oooh, look a fluffly dog!

Ahem… I basically followed my nose and that took me where my interestests led me, eventually, computers.

I’ve been into computer programming since age 12 when a friend introduced me to Microsoft Basic. Then I discovered Turbo Pascal, VB, HTML, and once I knew enough to get myself into trouble (which happened more than once during high school) I knew that working with computers was what I wanted to do for the rest of my life.

Computer programming, creating websites, and developing software that enhances people’s experience with computers are just some of the things I’m passionate about.

I’m a web developer, internet strategist, and avid experimenter. This blog is about my experiments with creating multiple streams of income. You’ll find case studies, experiment write ups, interviews, tips and strategies plus loads more if you subscribe.

My Goal For This Site

I’m really hoping I can bring a bit of life to this topic which for some reason or another seems to be overridden with hype. Most of the advice out there is either just plain bad, or is so fluffy and light that it really conveys nothing at all.

Let’s change that.

I’m just a regular guy who – despite what I think – doesn’t know it all. But guess what? Finding out is half the fun and that’s what we’ll do – together. Experiments that are measurable and fun. Case studies that actually talk about the important stuff. Hairy project warts included.
