Delegation experiment feedback & looking for a Python dev
I make social apps, but have realized there is a limit to how much stuff I can make just by myself. My app hit/miss ratio is high enough that if I can keep it up, it would even make sense to pay someone to help with my projects.
So I decided to experiment with delegating. If you are interested in helping, I wrote this spec to describe what the app would be like: http://etherpad.com/ZesZbqIR5Z
If you haven't used App Engine before but are otherwise a pretty good dev, this could be your chance to get paid for learning it. I'll monitor the comments here and you can also mail me at manga@bemmu.com
If my approach to this seems wrong somehow, do share your thoughts on how I should proceed to get people to help me out.

- tocomment 17y agoThat sounds like a cool app. How would you make money with something like that? Where does the hiring come in? Are you saying someone should build this as a sort of interview question/project?
- bemmu 17y agoIt would make money from offer networks, I have good experiences from those before. Would likely start paying the cost of a developer at around 10k daily visits. Perhaps I shouldn't have said "hiring" so I changed the wording to "delegation". I'm looking for someone to do this as a short project, but there would be other projects from me if it goes well. I'm still trying to figure out what the best way to structure something like this is.
