Others Online Blog

A Little Prerelease Leakage

I've been seeing Blonde2.0's friendly face  in the Others Online toolbar here and there. Reading her blog, we indeed think a lot about the same sort of things, plus she's got a great logo!

Well, I was pleased to see she blogged about Others Online today, and included some info on our upcoming release. I really appreciate when users blog about us.

1,000 People or $1,000

A 1,000 targeted visitors to your blog in 30 days or $1,000. Others Online will be launching a free service that promotes people to other people contextually, kinda like Google Adwords but for people. We have partnered with various media companies that reach 60M people a month. If you want to be a part of our 1,000 or $1,000 launch pilot program next month, email me (steinar AT othersonline DOT com).

Ok, we're funded for a while, and we need to hire a couple solid solid devs that know how to kick serious ass. If you're smart and feel like now would be a good time to make your mark and roll the dice with a startup in the area of social discovery and search, you really ought to talk to us. Look, startups can be harsh and you're not going to be paid 100% of what you're worth. But unlike most other companies, you'd actually have direct influence on how much your stock is worth -- if you can stomach that sort of pressure!
