- ecrotty 13y agoGenius. Booked.
- ptr 13y agoAwesome, is the price updated in realtime? By the way; the page is completely bork'd on IE9, but you probably knew that. (why do they make me use it?!)
- endtwist 13y agoYes, the price is updated in realtime, automatically, after every purchase.
- smalter 13y agovery cool experiment, just booked. fyi, josh is also the author of many blog posts that've appeared on hn: http://notes.unwieldy.net/ http://notes.unwieldy.net/.
- spoiledtechie 13y agoI just modified the JS so that I could buy him for just $1.00. It worked right up to Checkout.
- ljoshua 13y agoNeat idea Josh. So have you sold 26 hours then (at time of writing), for a total of $351? What happens when you reach market rate, people just start buying fewer hours? Seems like it might peter out?
- kiosan 13y agogreat! I tried to do the same via emails. you did it very nicely.
- johnmurch 13y agoAs you approach your current billable hour I will be curious how high you get and how long each "purchase" takes e.g. I have watched (and bought) it go from $1 to $31 so far - looking forward to seeing it at $150+ and how long it will take to have someone buy at that price.
- _wesley_ 13y agoWe're excited to work with you Josh!
- bowerbird 13y agoso after 100 hours of work, you think that your advice will be worth $100 an hour? whatever happened with that 10,000 hours thing? inflation? -bowerbird
- JaakkoP 13y agoI just had the 1st hour out of 3, and Josh was truly helpful! He is just that kind of outside professional that we needed to have a look at our product with a fresh pair of eyes.
