One sub-theme of this present blog is "reinventing yourself" — maybe reinventing yourself from an employee to a self-employed person (who remains self-employed by learning to those services face to face).
In that regard, US News has again published another very apropos item on one of its blogs, this one referencing Boomerater.com, which, if I understand it, is a new collaboration between Boomerater and US News.
Anyway, check it out; it may be very much of interest to you.
