A career in software создатель Mind Map: A career in software

1. User Groups

1.1. How to find them

1.1.1. Skills Matter

1.1.2. Meetup.com

1.2. JavaWUG

2. What I am hoping to create is a tree diagram instead of a mindmap but this seems the best place to start. I am basically hoping to understand the different routes available to people within software. This is to help Grads and people coming in to the industry to firstly gain an understand of the options currently available to them, and secondly to gain an idea where those options may lead. I hope to eventually use this map or a similar one to be a starting point to much more information on each discipline
