hajrice··on ASK HN: Sample contract for vested shares for a new cofounder
Hey, you have a typo in your second sentence. "...negociations..." should be negotiations.

Good luck btw!

hajrice··on [dead]
Thanks, I appreciate the feedback!
hajrice··on [dead]
Thanks for the encouragement. I'd be glad to help you out with that. I usually do free minor tweaks(that usually are 10 minutes or so) for existing clients.

hajrice··on Ask HN: Where do you find freelance developers
I'm currently free, I'm a rails/php developer and badass designer. Here are some things I did last week(though this was design =/)

lets get in touch, hajrice@gmail.com

hajrice··on Ask HN: How do you go about finding designers?
I like your stuff. We should work together.
hajrice··on Ask HN: How do you go about finding designers?
Hey, I'm a designer. hajrice@gmail.com I had a post on HN recently. Anyway, here's a few samples of what I've done last week.

hajrice··on Google AppEngine or Heroku?
Tried both. Heroku is way better, hands down. All the problems I encounter with heroku are fixed(thanks to the awesome support team) in a matter of hours.

I love that man! I feel pumped :D I'm emailing you right now!

For designing, I use Photoshop to create a feel of the site, then I render the CSS and XHTML.

For programming, I use Ruby on Rails(check out their website) and PHP. PHP is very easy to pick up, the learning curve is lower but in my opinion Rails is the way to go.

Whoops! Thought I had it on, my bad.

I've updated my profile with my email(hajrice@gmail.com). I'll send you an email right now. :)

Ah, I'm sorry I made that impression =/ I'm charging 30-40 an hour right now(a lot of designers charge $70 an hour) since I know that HN is filled with people bootstrapping their company.

That being said, I'm willing to adjust the price depending on the situation.

hajrice··on [dead]
Yup.

Was updating the post, sorry.

hajrice··on I just launched my bootstrapped startup. Pray for me.
Erik, the design is really good. The signup page could get improved, but many people have suggested how so I wont get into that.

When I see how HN reacted on your idea and execution(which is simply ... FANTASTIC in my opinion), I immediately got more motivated to work. I'm confident that this will be a badass business!! :D

Congratulations, once more.

hajrice··on Tell HN: Take My Idea - A Social Calendar
Keep in mind that it's really hard to approach these types of companies. And when you do approach them, you'll have to have a large audience.

I've worked in KO3, it's awesome!
hajrice··on Tell HN: Take My Idea - A Social Calendar
Is this demanded enough that you'd actually pay for it? Don't wanna sound like a jerk or anything, just wanna see how big the demand is.
hajrice··on Questionify - Q&A-Powered customer support
I hate to spam, but I thought this app could maybe help you/your startup. Questionify is at the early stage and I'm following the lean startup principle, so I'm looking for the initial customers.

How is Questionify different from GetSatisfaction/Tenderapp/Uservoice? Questionify is a Q&A platform that lets your customers ask questions. Your employees answer them through the web interface or by email(you get an email every time someone asks a question) and your support page is updated in a matter of seconds. You can upload screenshots or paste YouTube URLs in answers, we'll convert them and prettify the answers.

Fully brandable. Questionify is full brandable, you can style it by uploading your company's logo, setting the brand colors.

No registration necessary for posting a question. Your customers dont have to register on Questionify to post a question, questions are monitored through the Pending Questions tab.

Subscribe to a question. On every question page, customers can subscribe to a question(by leaving their email) and get notified when that question is answered or if the current answer is changed. Customers can leave their email when creating a question and they're automatically added to the question's subscriber list.

Questions are sorted by category and views. Every question belongs to a category which you can create/edit/update/delete, questions belong to categories. For instance, if Hacker News was using Questionify, some categories would be: issues, submitting a post, jobs, etc. Every time you open up a question it's rank is increased by one(backend: questions have a views field which is auto incremented by 1 upon every question view) so that your home page shows the 10 most viewed questions for each category.

I'd love to hear your thoughts, opionions, questions. I'm always on HN so expect a immediate response.

hajrice··on Ask HN: Review my weekend project - TVmemes.com
I love it. I just made a few, and tbh there's some pretty funny stuff on there!

What did you build this in btw?

hajrice··on Ask HN: Learnings from Dale Carnegie, "How To Win Friends And Influence People"
I practically use all the points to get girls and tbh, it goes really good for me.
hajrice··on Ask HN: What tools do you use?
For screenshots, I use an free alternative for Windows(which in my case is much much better): http://pokit.etf.ba
hajrice··on Ask HN: How much customer support time would 100,000 users take?
I don't wanna come across as a spammer or anything, but I'm building something that'll hopefully solve that pain for you.
hajrice··on Ask HN: Going to Grad School, which language/framework should I learn?
C/C++, Python ?
hajrice··on Ask HN: What problem is REALLY bugging you?
Hmm, interesting. I could see this being a service that charges you a monthly fee. I'm sure that a lot of people(migrants mostly) would be more than fine working for fees which we consider really low. In more detail, if you make 100 an hour, giving 10/h actually earns you another 100/h every time that person runs a task for you.
hajrice··on Ask HN: Will you buy an iPad?
NO WAY. I don't find it worth 400.
hajrice··on Ask HN: My App's Pricing plans.
Well, you can brand your page using logos, colors. Another feature is you can upload screenshots along with pasting a youtube video link and we convert it into a video object.

Besides that, I guess stuff like live search etc.

hajrice··on Ask HN: My App's Pricing plans.
Sorry, I didn't really define my question well. Basically by users I mean people that may edit the website. You have really good arguments. I don't really find this being fit for big companies, but I suppose one way of pricing would be by how much traffic your site gets which sort of directly imposes how much money your business is making. In my opinion this is by far the best way to go.
hajrice··on Ask HN: what are your 2 or 3 favorite SAAS services ?
Campfire Remember The Milk

And, if Google Apps count, count them in too!

hajrice··on Ask HN: My App's Pricing plans.
haha yeah, dealing with customer that aren't really paying can be a pain. In fact, I'm going after businesses, focusing on B2B, so I agree with skipping freemium.
