Awesome hackers in Jaipur or Ajmer in India
If you can code and write (content), I have a dream project for you. You have to be at either of the 2 locations above, or will to re-locate there (room, board, everything can be taken care off) Contact me at udai00 <at> gmail.com.
About me: Spent 23 yrs in the US -- Stanford undergrad, built a software start-up from zero, through dot com bust, raised over 25M dollars, acquired F500 customers, built revenue and profits and sold it 9 years later to a public company ; moved to India about 12 months back to build businesses here.

designed for a foreign audience travelling to india
use what ever platform is available so we can launch fast, get user feedback and then iterate
Okay let's do this in assembly, you down?
we want hackers in ycombinator mold -- young, passionate, tenacious - with the right mix of hard core technical, UI and design, and plain entrepreneurial business skills to drive both new user and return visits. bi also enjoy working with this sort of individual. (got to be fun since i do not need to do it for the money) these are the sort who can take on an existing industry and re-invent it. happy to hire 2,3,4 however many good ones i can find. from the little i've seen in india, most young hackers would not get an opportunity like this: 100% US style working style - full freedom, big mission, zero bureaucracy, etc - for experienced serial entrepreneur. basically the best way to figure out how to do is to do it once for someone else who knows how to do it and has all the funding and infrastructure in place
Personally, I think we should allow (and even encourage) them as long as they're from someone already in the community (say karma > 300?) just like polls.
(PS. It was awesome meeting you at HFNYC!)
