Definitely the same concept. I had no doubt that this idea wasn't already done, but it was just one of those random itches I wanted to scratch :)

- rglullis 13y agoIf you have any interest in working with Python (Django, or any other reasonably modern framework), I would be totally okay with open sourcing my code and developing this further. You should take a look at my original announcement [1] thread: there are some good ideas in there. In the end, I didn't work more on it because I was really busy at the time with my real startup, and I saw no real interesting way to compete with Glassdoor. Plus, I got sort of pissed that all the publicity (articles on TC, MSN Money and ABC news) we got was co-opted by the Glassdoor PR people.

- narcissus 13y agoThat sucks that your publicity was co-opted. On the other hand, you got publicity I guess :) Reading more of that thread I definitely think you had a deeper drive (if that's even a good phrase to use) for salaryshare.me. I definitely have no desire to do anything with it, really, other than learning those random bits of technology. And maybe giving my mates an easier way to discuss their income. On the flip side, congratulations on actually going up against those guys. When I mentioned this site to my wife she asked "so, kinda like salary.com?" I laughed and just said "God, I hope not". I don't have the time nor inclination right now for something so heavy :)
- avree 13y agoHey man—just wanted to let you know about a typo on salaryshare.me. It says "No punctuaction." when entering a salary.
- rglullis 13y agoThank you. Should be fixed now.
