Thought I'd start this thread for hackers who aren't looking for a job or freelance work, but rather for a partner/co-founder to work with on their own projects. (I know there's a google doc for this, but I suspect it's outdated, and I know it's cumbersome to use).
In terms of formatting, maybe something like:
- Location
- Your role (developer, designer, business dude, etc.) and who you're looking to collaborate with
- Skills and expertise (frameworks, languages, styles, experience, etc.)
- Whether you're looking to work on your idea or someone else's.
- Brief description of your project, or types of projects you'd be interested in working on.
- How much time you can commit to, and whether or not you're willing to collaborate remotely.
- Business Co Founder / Product Development / Product Manager (I am looking for Technical Co Founder to help me develop a project I have in mind). I have a MSc in engineering, so I am technical as well, but not coding.
- Skills: Business development, product features, product requirement, road map, etc. I am good in analyzing product idea, suggest/make improvements on existing ideas, and business development to monetize. Product design as well, I can do wireframe, etc. (basically everything except graphic design, never excel in anything artistic, and coding!).
- I have an idea that I am thinking to develop right now, so looking for technical co founder who wants to partner with me. However if you are a technical guy, you have your own idea, and you are looking for someone to analyze your project and how to move forward, I am open to work as a partner as well to help getting your idea off the ground.
- I have ideas about reviews (so the competitors would be Yelp, Amazon, reviews site) with different kind of business model to monetize it.
- I prefer someone local as I believe working together and brainstorming would be the most effective way to bring out the best of both of us. However if not possible, I m open to other possibilities as well.
