omni50··on Ask HN: Looking for cofounders, I'll pay the bills
I am looking for folks that love to code like I do. I primarily use Python right now but, it is just a tool and I think using whatever tool is best for the job is the way to go. I am more concerned with finding people I can trust and get along with / enjoy being around. I have no problem learning a new technology if it means creating a great product. E.g. if the rest of the team believed Ruby or Clojure would give us an advantage I would pick up a few books and go into a cave for a couple weeks and learn to use it. This philosophy has served me well in the past and allowed me to do things that my competitors (and leadership) thought impossible.

The idea I am most excited about involves solving the problem of finding something to do on any giving day. As an example I moved to San Diego and have to look in a dozen different places to find out what is going on in my area. Often I miss something I would be interested in because I didn't know how to find out about it. So aggregating and presenting that information in a simple way that is easy to search would be of great value to me.
