Here is $10,000 for You.

I am not sure if this bubble 2.0 but my good friends at SayNow are offering a hefty bounty for the best programmers. Read below for what they have to say.

We need 1-2 great Java developers that can own the backend of our voice service.


If you connect us with an engineer that we hire, we are offering $10,000 or 10,000 shares in the company, whichever you choose.

[Noah's Note: Think if you had 10,000 shares of Google stock, Insane!] Finding great people is always tricky and in the current climate, it’s proven to be even more difficult. My hope is that you may know someone who might be looking for something new, particularly a consumer startup. I think we are early enough for this engineer to make a huge impact, but far enough along to be safe and clear about the direction we are heading.

Here’s a little about SayNow. We provide phone numbers for “the
famous”. Our service is used by celebrities to communicate with their fans using the power of voice. Celebrities are assigned a phone number that fans use to hear the latest voice messages from their favorite
star, take part in polls, and even buy things with a press of a button. We are a 10 person company, are venture backed and growing our user base rapidly.

Know anyone? If someone gets hired through this post, please buy me a burrito;)

    GOOG @ $437 * 10,000 shares = $4,370,000. Nice thing about GOOG and Berkshire Hathaway is you don’t have to do split adjusted math. Not bad for a LinkedIn intro.
