If anyone is located in the Santa Monica/Los Angeles area and can do some front end html/css some php on wordpress, email me. I got a couple of projects coming up that might need your services. If you have any links to your projects that will help me a lot to see your skillset.

Thanks

I'm an iOS developer in Atlanta, GA (although I'm telecommute friendly) who'd be very happy to pick up some contract work.

Since I never miss an opportunity for a plug and it basically serves as the most meaningful credential in this business, my company has one serious product in the store: http://ballisticpigeon.com/folio (it's on sale this weekend for $0.99 instead of $4.99). I've been doing iOS development since the day the SDK was released (personal projects while I finished up graduate school then proof-of-concept contract work for a startup).

Now I'm hoping to finance my little entrepreneurial endeavor with some interestingly hourly projects.

I'm hiring for Drupal talent anywhere in the US. I'm also working on some crazy Grails startup projects (infrastructure stuff) which is going to require some real-time Hadoop work. We also need a project manager, a designer, and someone to help run the NYC office for our agency (Drupal evangelist, go to conferences, operations, sales). So, quite a few jobs here.

We're also looking for iOS developers (we've got quite a few projects).

How's that? Anyone interested drop me a line: j@workhabit.com

I'm a developer from Belgium and I can do iOS/Android application and OpenGL ES game development. Also have a lot of experience with C/C++ development and PHP.

Would love to get some contract work so I have extra time to work on my startup. Email is in my profile if you want to see some examples of my work.
