Heh, well that's the problem. It's hard to meet people when you can't find or locate anyone who is interested. I've talked to one person face to face at the college who acted interested - I even brought the tangible products to class to give him an idea about what I'm doing. He asked me what it was.... that tells me he has no interested and didn't even check out the website.

Turns out he doesn't know anything besides a little C++.. clueless about web applications. I'm only attending college as a backup plan. I'm pretty far ahead of everyone in my classes - seems like no one does anything outside of class.
