Anyone ever feel overwhelmed?
 

I don't mean overwhelmed by work but the sheer magnitude of a project. I'm part-owner and Lead Developer of an application that all of a sudden has been picked out for Mass Adoption by some very large corporations and I'm getting engineer's jitters about whether it can handle the tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of users who'll be making use of the Software.

It's a common feeling, I get it a lot. I've never worked on anything with that many users, but I have designed systems that big corporations depend on. It doesn't matter how many times I do it, I still get nervous over it. Most of the time people write technology off as good because "the experts" made it, it gets hard to realize that you are "the experts" that make stuff work.

I've always seen it as a life without nervousness is one that has never done anything worth being proud of.

I feel the same way often. I started majorly freelancing a few months back and I've gotten a couple of big clients, one of which is using all of my work with their site visitors on the forums (50000+). All I can say is to not do what I did and take on more than you can juggle. I have 3 clients I'm soling on with all relatively similar deadlines, plus my own websites to worry about.

Amen to that. I put together an entertainment website a few months back and now I'm looking to add forum integration.

I also got hired as a plugin developer for Subdreamer so that'll definitely help with getting known.
