 Play around with technology
This might not be the answer you're looking for but I find that I can learn a lot about different technical topics by just trying them out. In your case, I would probably just download some software like wordpress or whatever and play around with it. Create some html/css/javascript/etc. files on your computer and try some coding (but start small...with "Hello World" or something). I might also get Apache or IIS as a server and play around with some server side scripting and maintenance.
This won't directly contribute to your plan, but the knowledge you gain from doing this will definitely help you troubleshoot problems(like I want this link to pop up in a new page, or I want this text to be blue) and make good decisions about which technology to use for your plan(like SSL, databases, the server OS, etc.). The benefit with this approach is that you can learn from the pitfalls you make in the "sandbox" so you wouldn't make them again when you're actually running your business. |
