HMO:

I am nearing completion on an OSX productivity app aimed at helping busy project-oriented professionals (e.g. sales people, consultants, portfolio managers, attorneys) and college students deal with context switching by giving rapid access to diverse types of related information.

I'd greatly appreciate any of: beta testing, feedback, or advice on marketing.

HYO:

I'm a solid copy-writer and proof reader.

My email is in my profile.

I created http://www.Learneroo.com to teach programming and more through interactive content and challenges. I'm looking for more developers to help with:

a) running code online b) creating interactive javascript "explainers" c) connecting students with tutors or jobs

I'm also interested in joining another startup doing one of these things, and just created a site for that purpose: http://startupmerge.com/.

Please contact me at ak[at]learneroo.com to find out more.

I'm also looking to help people learn programming, either Java or Ruby.

HMO:

I just can't seem to solve this bug, no matter how hard I try... It's in my side project: http://www.hashworld.co/ it's written in Java under App Engine. If you want to give a try, send me an email at hmo@hashworld.co and I'll send you details.

How I can help:

I'd love to help out in interesting problems, especially relating to scaling and making sites always live.

HMO: We are a startup in Asia. We are three partners (all groomed at different startups in MA, US). We provide software development and software testing (manual, automation) services. We want to generate business from US and Europe. We really need help with marketing and sales.

Commenting so I can come back later (email also in my profile). Would be very interested in talking.

I worked with a dozen startups to put together the Startup Sticker Pack: http://startupstickerpack.com/ A dozen stickers from cool companies for $5. I'd love to hear from people about why they would / wouldn't want to buy one. It's not quite selling as well as I'd hoped. I'd also like to hear from startups / groups who might be interested in buying one for each member of their team. You can email me at mail+hmo@rober…

Great idea :-) A couple of observations: I'm a non-USian, and while it looks like you ship worldwide for 5 USD, it's not crystal clear. Be good to make it so. Also, I'm a Brit -- we're very polite ;-) -- so 5 USD including postage feels like I'm taking food off your table. I think most non-USians would be happy to pay an extra couple of bucks. Just a thought. Or maybe go down the middle and say, 5 USD + 1 USD shippin…

Thanks for the feedback. I've clarified the text to show that it's free shipping worldwide. I like the idea of letting the customer pick from a list. I'm not entirely sure how much I'll pursue this beyond the first batch, but I'll keep that idea in mind if I do another round.

Thanks again for the suggestions!

Hey, this is great. I'm doing the same thing. A lot of stuff: DVDs, books, musical instruments, gadgets and stuff. :)

Thanks! If you use it, please feel free to post issues on the Github issues list. Also, I'd be very interested to hear if you have experience with other writing packages--perhaps Sigil, yWriter, or Scrivener--and what you like about them.

This should become at category up there next to "jobs" "submit" etc

I think that the WhoIsHiring account should just automatically post this. It's basically for everything that doesn't fit in the monthly Who's Hiring of Freelancer threads. Btw, this thread is fascinating. It's a great way to check the pulse of the HN crowd and a more informal way for people to "Show HN:".
