Ask HN: Services for startups / gigs for hackers
Hi folks,
Had a chance to meet some of you at the recent nyc meetup. Had a couple questions that I'd like to ask the group out there.
As a bootstrapped startup, what are some "bite-sized" needs that you'd be willing to pay someone local to do, assuming the process of getting this help was efficient? (I'm thinking one to a few hours, maybe $50-200 compensation).
I suppose this might cut against the "do everything yourself" mantra (which I actually firmly subscribe to), but in some circumstances it might make sense considering the value of time (or perhaps the limitations of the founders' skillsets).
On the flip side, as a hacker, what are some services you could provide to a small company to make some cash? Ideally this wouldn't involve creating significant IP, as that might get tricky.
Best,
Ep.

- pclark 18y agoYou know, I've love a service where I can ask hackers how to do stuff. Like Yahoo Answers, but hacker answers.
