My name is Matthew Josten and I am 15 years old (going to be 16 on Sept. 1). I will also be in 10th grade once school starts again for me. I am looking for some type of computer job that would keep my busy. I would like to be paid but to start off with a reseller package is OK until you see fit to pay me.

Currently I am the webmaster of http://www.ilearnhtml.com which is an HTML tutorial for beginners. That whole web site except for the logo I did it all by myself. I have also made a simple PHP/MySQL support ticket script that you could try out at http://www.ilearnhtml.com/help.html for the support ticket form and http://www.ilearnhtml.com/login.php for the admin panel. Login as admin as the username and support as the password. I also did that all. Finally at school this year I set up a Red Hat Linux web server there so I know some about Linux. I know HTML, CSS, PHP, and MySQL pretty well. I have used Javscript, Perl, DHTML, XML, and other various web languages. I am also pretty familiar with CPanel on the user side.

I would be willing to do just about anything like answering support e-mails, helping code a PHP/MySQL project, or doing whatever. I am online around 5 or 6 hours a day when I don't have school. When I do have school I am online around 3 or 4 hours in the evening. When I am not online I am usually at my computer messing around.

I want a job partly because I would like some extra money but partly to get expirence working for an online company. I will be around this week but for the next 2 weeks I will be gone on vacation so I won't be able to start for you until the 3rd or 4th week in August.

Edit: You can either PM me or e-mail me at matthew@ilearnhtml.com if you are interested or have any questions.

Thanks for your time!!

Matthew Josten

Oh so you would rather be sitting in front of a computer, getting paler looking, fat as heck, while losing your eyesight from staring at the monitor. At least the fry makers are moving around.

I have a job that pays around $3000 a month. Of course the more customers we get the more money you make. E-mail me and we'll talk more about it.
