“Webpreneur” is #1 on my “Business Ideas on a Budget” list. But I think Susan was going for opportunities based on current social trends. Web design and code-writing are pretty “evergreen”. Also, those markets are pretty saturated — I’m not sure they’re really the best choice for someone wondering, “I’d like to work from home – I wonder what kind of business I could start?”
