I was using SendGrid for email delivery and needed to upgrade the plan since I reached my limit. It should work now.

Good idea. I'll add a GitHub field.

I don't think I've removed any profiles. I can look into this if you like.

Right, thats the best way for now. If you still have trouble, feel free to email me (email is on my profile).

Its a text based search and I'm working on some simple query expansion to resolve SF / Bay Area / San Francisco type queries as the same. There are still a few open questions for implementing proximity search ...

At the moment "more complete" profiles are ranked higher. But I agree, there should be some randomization introduced.

Hey Ben, I created hnhackers a few hours after the spreadsheet was posted on HN. Here is my original post on HN: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1264544 I thought this would be a better way for us HN consultants to connect, but I'm h

Ok, I've replaced the emails with a contact form instead (still working on the captcha). Also, the login is your url: HNHackers.com/username

Good catch with the lowercasing names. I'll fix that. Yes, I need a better implementation of searching by tag, or at least do some serious data cleanup.

Sorry about that, it was default in a plugin I'm using but I've removed it from future emails that are sent.

Ok, I fixed the minimum login length to 2 chars. Good catch. Also, I removed the $100/hr sub title :)

I agree. I took it off the logo. I was simply thinking of an easy way to restrict the site to quality coders, but this just sounds tacky.

I'll get rid of that asap. I hate that too -- I think its default in rails acts_as_authenticated plugin and I missed it.

As I recall, ShareThis has better email integration. Personally, they both provide too many 'posting options' for my taste and are always two actions away for the user. There is also neat css hack floating around that can detect what popula
