I think the problem is your assuming that programming is limited to cranking out dynamic websites ("web applications" they call them nowadays) all day. There are plenty of problems out there -- even internal ones! IT tools that are missing -- that need solving that don't even come close to have web interface or where web interface is only a superficial part.

This is what I'm thinking. I'm also getting tired of web dev already... and I'm only 22.

I spend part of my free time learning math, distributed systems, and other subjects in hopes of moving to another area one day.
