27 years old and in a bit of a career crisis. I've been drifting between dead-end jobs and I want to steer myself into a more satisfying position. I'm especially interested in getting into a creative industry and/or web development/design, or something else that will play to my (self-perceived) strengths of creativity and technical aptitude.
I need advice. So much advice. Perhaps some of you kind folks can help! [NB - This gets pretty long. Also, I'm in London, UK.]

So I've got this pretty sweet gig doing data management for medical research, and my employers have said that they'll be very supportive of any efforts to train or educate myself in this field. This seems like a great opportunity. What should I be looking at? What, in general, should I be trying to learn, and where should I be trying to get from here? More details, possible ideas and a touch of commitment-phobia inside.
