Designer/Developer matching service

I was thinking of a site that does this but for business people to tech guys.

Most tech people don't know how (or want to know how) to write a business plan, find funding, etc. So there could really be a nice symbiosis.

It seems to me that rock bands, book authors, etc. have agents who understand how to get the content to the people in the right way. It's a system that's worked well for those industries.

What do you guys think?

I was just looking for something like this actually. My designer/friend's workload is too high at the moment...and if you're a hacker/designer looking for a project to work on, preferably in the bay area, hit me up: david.ziegler {at} gmail.com

Just signed up, and from browsing the message boards, there are some genuinely skilled and interesting people on there even though the activity level isn't very high. Maybe I'll get some work

Collabfinder is a great site. But, alas, it is not getting much traffic at present. If it could get the footfall, so to speak, it would be brilliant.

It seems the ranking system is bugged, if you sort by rank, the #1 developer has 3 stars, while there are people with 4 stars right below him

Another great point

freelancers can browse depeding on the projects and choose the project that fits them most and then ask to work on it

signed up, found something i'd enjoy collaborating on immediately. nice layout, too.

the signup process gives me a blank page, is it working for you?
