Do you need corporate experience to become a freelance web developer or can you start from scratch?
I'm trying to get an A.S. degree in web programming from a community college. I'm not sure I can get a corporate job with just an A.S. degree. Can I just become a freelance web developer from scratch? How should I start out? I know about portfolios, and I know about elance.com and websites like that.

Without some kind of degree, it's going to be tough even to get someone to talk to you. As time goes on, you may want to build up a portfolio, and be able to show you designed websites for other customers. It's something like what an artist would go through to get hired for a job. Lot's of that kind of work is by contract, so you are not really an employee too. It just depends on what you are looking for
