Title: Want to work for a bitcoin business?
Post by: darbsllim on May 30, 2011, 03:02:26 AM
We're looking for some help to launch a bitcoin business!

We're about to launch a fun place for people to go and do work to earn bitcoins.

One of the barriers for BitCoin newcomers is the difficulty of obtaining bitcoins unless you have a $1500 gaming computer sitting around, or money to invest in a for-profit(?) mining rig.

We are hoping that this will be one of the first places the new bitcoiner comes to earn his first bitcoin. Sort of like the faucets - except you can get a more meaningful amount of bitcoin.

We're looking for input, ideas, suggestions, early adopters, and anyone who work for the site doing things like administrative tasks, email support, evangelism, etc.

If you are interested, please lets discuss here or in private if you prefer!

Brad

Yes. And if some addons fit my activist agenda you get those for free (provided you are ok with forked code so I can continue with my BTC activism using general purpose versions).

I'm down, I have MySql, & PHP coding skills, a webserver, and Google, Facebook, Yahoo advertising codes if that is any use to your campaign. All my earned bitcoins go back into the community somehow to keep the bit-flow(cashflow pun!) going

Awesome guys - I'll post more info here later Xenland.

Should be ready to show the beta site in the next few days - then you can see for yourself what will be needed, and we'll open it up for people to register, use and apply to be on the team!

What about getting data entry job for people to fill and raised money out of and share to contributors as that won't require much computing power.Is a suggestion and people can add to.The main theme I want to present is something like the pool we have on the bitcoin community but this towards some work which can earn some money and share among contributors.

sounds like a fiverr.com clone, but with bitcoins instead of $5 fiat
