We're hiring iOS, android, web frontend and backend engineers. Shoot me an email (ryan @dailybooth) if interested.
It's probably also worth mentioning that we currently only have 2 engineers. So if you have interest in working on the full stack and having your code pushed to production where you can actually see users get excited over what you build, then make sure you get in touch. The thing that will hold us back the most is engineering resources (which we're actively attempting to fix).
I've been lucky enough to hang out with the DailyBooth crew a few times, and they're all awesome. If you're looking for an amazing place to work, definitely apply.
Is it because you are interested in hearing the answer? It's a social media company focused on attracting users and eyeballs (at the moment). The revenue is nil, same as it was for fb and google in the early days (not saying that dailybooth will be the next facebook and google, just that there are examples of companies that were once focused on users and eyeballs that are now focused on revenue).
Or is it because people enjoy the snark? Screw that company that just raised $6M!! I'm not jealous, I'm just...Bubble, bubble, stupid VCs, no revenue, no business model, pictures, bubble!
Congratulations on closing the round! What's the stack that you folks run over there? Any plans towards expanding the user demographic profile? Either way: Nice execution and killer product!
Thanks. Our complete stack is quite complicated, but a quick run down of what we're using: mysql, memcached, mongodb, gearman, nodejs, redis and puppet. (Node and redis are not in production currently.) The main language we use is php. I know, ugh, from all of you ruby and python guys, but good clean php is as good as any of the other language.
Yes, we have plans to expand the user demographic. Our product roadmap should help with this. We're just too constrained right now with engineering resources.
Wow, mysql, mongo, and redis all in the same stack sounds a little bit like you guys have fallen into the trap of chasing too many shiny new technologies :) (happens to me too)
MySQL is what we started with, as time has gone by, we've migrated more and more data to other data stores.
Redis and mongo solve two different problems for us. Redis is great for the social graph, which is how we've started experimenting with it, whereas mongo is best for just about everything else that doesn't hold the data in MySQL.

Maybe try and surface potential models?
Otherwise, why would I go there?
