The vision's to create a global arena, where as devs we can compete and build projects that matter.

  We already have that. It's called real life. Still I signed up and am present on the leaderboard.
  • exolxe 14y ago
    Fair enough. We want to complement real life with a virtual environment and make it easier to collaborate with dev's outside your existing network. Congrats on the leaderboard status.

      > make it easier to collaborate with dev's outside your existing network. Sounds fun. Looking forward to it, thanks.

    Same here! I am utterly unenthused by the stated mission but I still hunted down every possible point just because they were there. Great game mechanics. I guess I'm just a sucker for ratings.

  So in the long term, how exactly will this be different from http://www.topcoder.com/ http://www.topcoder.com/ ? Just wondering... I signed up already anyway.
  • exolxe 14y ago
    Good question. Top Coder is more of a crowd-sourced approach to solving a problem, where as we're focused on building an interactive community.

      Sorry, you are wrong. Check the algorithm section. It is all about competitions for developers.
      • exolxe 14y ago
        Yes they use competition, but its not about that, its the context and how it's used that's important. It's a fundamentally different approach, just wait for our next step...

    Is it just me or is the topcoder website confusing? I've never really managed to find what I want to whenever I go there (pretty much the exact opposite experience to the submitted site which drops you immediately into coding)

  Can you speak a little bit about how this turns into a business?
