Yes, that's correct :) Most income comes from advertising, paid reviews, sponsorship, affiliate products (hosting, plugins, premium themes from other developers).

You can turn everything into a business as long as you have a reasonable business plan in place and know that users are willing to pay for some extra features or service.

Story time: 2 years ago I started to learn frontend web development from various online courses. I had zero technical background and no intention to make money. Within few months I learned enough to create my first WordPress theme. It was terrible but it worked . I made few more themes and never did anything with them. I made like 6 themes and just deleted theme few months down the road. Then I decided to submit one theme on WordPress.org just to see if it gets approved. Themes goes through review and someone would evaluate my code and that's what I was after. Long story short my themes now have been downloaded over 1,000,000 times and I have turned it into 6 figure a year business.

While I haven't sold a single theme yet, apparently you can recommend hosting and premium plugins that goes along with your themes and make a decent income.

I am building free WordPress themes just to get some basic knowledge about web development and hopefully will move on to something bigger and bolder in near future.

I am using OS X because of the built in terminal and Retina display and until recently I was using Windows. I don't see how Mac is better.

There is no such thing as the best OS there is only one that suits your needs. Anyone who says Win or Mac or Linux sucks are just dumb.

Apple made this decision just to dump Google and try to gain more control. Apple dind't want to use OpenStreetMap because its open source solution and Apple never uses open source solution. Yeah, its iOS and OS X is based on Linux (sort of) but they will never tell this to anyone. iOS 6 Maps sucks just like the App Store on the New iPad. Maybe it is just me but I found it very, very slow. It's better on iPhone

I guess there will not going to be a hard coding for first graders but some basic introduction to it. Can't imagine any first grader to code an app. Will see once more information about the learning process will be available.
