Hey guys I'm busy flipping my convertible note into what I'm calling a "second seed" round from a bunch of big name Angels for my social-mobile startup and I was talking to an advisor (totally gonna be on the board when we get our Series A) about how its time to add a technical co-founder who can really take the lead on all the implementation stuff we've got in mind and I was wondering if anyone knew the best places to find technical co-founders who are interesting in joining a startup (no salary, 5%)?
Also if you have ideas for the product we should start with, we haven't decided yet, we just really wanna own the social mobile space.
edit: also, can anyone recommended the best bars and restaurants in nyc to network with other social mobile startups?
- jimboyoungblood 16y agoI think owning the social mobile space is a great idea!
- trotsky 16y agoI'd suggest instagr.am + foursquare + groupon: Get 10 strangers to take your picture in a 7-11 and check in and you all get free slurpees!
- jerf 16y agoNo, you gotta be able to monetize that. Get 10 strangers to take a picture of them viewing an ad and check in for a free slurpee. Also, ads on the slurpee, ads on the photo app, and ads in the participating 7-11s. Now we're rolling in dough. Patents for everybody!
- trotsky 16y agoYou're hired.

- phreanix 16y agoI'm still a bit hazy on how to define 'social mobile', can you explain just a tad more? Also, so you have ideas, but no concrete product yet, what is the technical co-f going to be working on? Funny, because I just shot a fellow HN'er an email commenting on his hyperlocal concept and it turned into a hyperlocal, 'social mobile' concept, if it does fit your definition of it.
