bharani_m··on [Show HN] Engem.me - Give your LinkedIn profile a visual facelift
Thanks for trying it out Doug! I will try to fix these issues shortly.

PS. I absolutely love Foundation!

bharani_m··on [Show HN] Engem.me - Give your LinkedIn profile a visual facelift
Thanks. Yes, It is somewhat like Flavors and About.me but I think your Engem page would tell a lot more about you than than the snippet that Flavors shows.

You need to enter your email/password after Linkedin auth so that I can send you the emails that you get via your Engem profile.

On the landing page? It seems to be working properly. I'll check again.
bharani_m··on [Show HN] Engem.me - Give your LinkedIn profile a visual facelift
Engem is a small little web app that I have been working on lately and it helps you give your Linkedin profile a visual facelift.

The core idea with Engem is that presently your LinkedIn profile doesn't tell much about you (and it doesn't look good either). If you see your LinkedIn profile, you will notice that apart from ads, a lot of the screen real-estate is used up by sections like "Viewers of this profile also clicked on". If you are sharing your profile with someone (for example a recruiter), these sections are not of any importance to you (or him).

I believe that this is where Engem comes in. It helps you showcase only the stuff that you want people to know about you and it does so in a visually appealing manner.

Let me know what you think about this. Looking forward to your feedback and inputs.

bharani_m··on Ask HN: What are you working on right now?
The main reason for building Airball was to teach myself backbone.js.
bharani_m··on Ask HN: What are you working on right now?
I am working on Airball - http://airball.in - an elegant dribbble viewer built with Backbone.js.

I am also trying to make a Titanium desktop app out of it.

bharani_m··on Ask HN: who started something in 2012 which is already profitable?
Thanks. I'll try to remove the upfront signup process. I will also try to integrate Twitter/FB connect.

There is a LinkedIn import, but it is one of the PRO features. More about that here - http://www.resumonk.com/pro

bharani_m··on Ask HN: who started something in 2012 which is already profitable?
The revenue is not much. It is about 300USD. I'll post the complete stats on my blog shortly.

I started Resumonk.com last month and it has already started generating some revenue.

Thanks. It took me about two weeks to get the MVP up and running.

Here's the gallery of templates - http://www.resumonk.com/resume_templates

I have also updated the landing page to include a link to this gallery.

Thanks for the feedback. 1. My email id is on the FAQ page, but I'll add a link to the footer shortly. 2. I decided to go with Paypal's default button because I felt that it will more more easily recognizable. 3. I guess you are getting the 500 error because you have not added any employment/education details. I will look into it shortly. 4. It is a one-time payment. I have just updated the text to clarify it.

You don't need to have a LinkedIn account to try this out. LinkedIn import is just an additional feature that you might want to use in case you don't feel like copy-pasting your resume information.
bharani_m··on Show HN: My first web app - Resumonk - A beautifully simple resume builder
Just updated the text to clarify that it is a one-time payment. Sorry for taking so long to make such a minor change.
bharani_m··on Show HN: My first web app - Resumonk - A beautifully simple resume builder
Thanks for your inputs. I just wanted to get the first version up and running quickly so I believe that I still need to fix a lot of things. I will definitely pay more attention to the consistency and the overall look and feel of the design in the next iteration.
bharani_m··on Show HN: My first web app - Resumonk - A beautifully simple resume builder
It's a one-time payment. But thanks for letting me know. I need to make that clear on the PRO page itself.
bharani_m··on Show HN: My first web app - Resumonk - A beautifully simple resume builder
I'll fix the links shortly.

Thanks. I designed the site myself.
bharani_m··on Show HN: My first web app - Resumonk - A beautifully simple resume builder
The form data is being auto-saved to Local Storage using the Sisyphus jQuery plugin. So if you are using a modern browser, you don't have to worry about losing any unsaved data.
bharani_m··on Show HN: My first web app - Resumonk - A beautifully simple resume builder
Yes, I've used Ruby on Rails and it is hosted on Heroku. The pdf is generated using wicked_pdf(wkhtmltopdf).

I really love looking at the poem as soon as I open up Firebug :-)
