Rails - Jul 2006 - Web application developers needed for brand new Startup...

Hello everyone,
I am a senior at California Polytechnic State University, San Luis 
Obispo. I have been perfecting an idea for a brand new web service and 
am looking for a few exceptional programmers to possibly join the 
"core." This is very much a Web 2.0 effort, we will be leveraging user
generated content (very much like YouTube, but not videos). However, it 
should be looked at as being built from "the ground up" to facilitate 
integration (open source programs may just be too disparate - and, 
difficult to make work as one). The site will integrate tagging. It is 
very important to have users define what is important to them (in 
addition to site offerings that we define). Also, the following 
capabilities are important for the site to offer: Blogging (possibly), 
Forum, Wiki, Search, a custom point system for user generated content 
contributions, as well as a couple of other features. Finally, Ajax 
technology and Ruby on Rails will be important, as is database 
expertise.

Programmer should understand Web 2.0 philosophy, be proficient in Ajax 
(preferred), PHP and MySQL, and, have some capabilities in design (can 
look outside if you do not have this skill).

If you are interested in this oppourtunity to join a brand new exciting 
startup then please email me at startupsquad@gmail.com . If you''re not 
interested and you know some very exceptional programmers or exepctional 
user-interface designers, then please forward this email to them, I 
would be very thankful.

Thank you very much,
-Brent Griffith
