Searching for some Web 2.0 / Ajax / Javascript Help

Tuesday, January 9th, 2007

DDM is looking for some freelance scripting help. Our ideal relationship would be with a modern programmer (in other words, buzzword compliant) that we could hit up with some, “We want to have this functionality … is it possible” questions. ;~) If the answer is yes then that programmer would whip up some scripts for us and we would pay for them.

To get us started in the relationship, we have a real-life example of functionality we actually need to find a way to implement right now. I’m sure I could find a way to do it with hours or days of head-banging … but I want it done better than that, and frankly … faster too. Here’s the deal – you take a look at this project and let us know how long it would take you, how much it would cost, and what technologies would be employed. We get back to you and ask you to bust it out if it seems like an elegant solution.

I am Looking for a Protégé

Thursday, January 4th, 2007

Yep, you heard it … I’m in search of a prodigy to bring into Deluxe Digital Media. I am basically looking for a mini-me … me a few years ago, if you will. (Narcissistic much?)

We at DDM are looking for someone to bring in initially on a freelance basis on some of our smaller projects, but if the fit is exceptional it would hopefully lead to a full-time job. You would be working directly with me and I would happily impart any and all of my knowledge on you and hopefully get some or yours back in return. You would also have the extreme pleasure of working with some of my colleagues here – who are brilliant, friendly, and fun.
