Hi all,

I've just recently joined this group which seems have quite a bit going on, so I figured I'd contribute too.

I'm just a newbie who's a Software Engineer, who's interested in new technology and was wondering if there are any software projects or ideas that I could volunteer for, as have been a volunteer growing up, but am looking to see if I can connect that with my passion for technology.

I'm more into C, C++, Java, PHP, MySQL coding, designing and developing and love robotics and embedded systems. Yep nerd to the core. Well so yep, that's it.

Feel free to email me at busybonbon@gmail.com

Thanks.

Hi Sasha,

We have a concrete business plan for a startup. We are looking for a php developer. if you are interested, we can connect.

Hi all,
I'm a serial entrepreneur and software engineer - it's good to be in Silicon Valley (virtually).  I co-founded a technology development company, iKubu, about 3 years ago.  We're currently 6 people.

What are we working on?
We've just completed the development of a micronmeter.  Its a device that uses the diffraction of light to measure the thickness of wool.  Our accuracy: within one thousandth of a millimeter...and that's using a normal 3 mega pixel CCD image sensor!  We used uClinux on a blackfin chip - so really good fun.  

We've also made a strategic partnership with a Chinese hardware development & manufacturing company.  These are guys with great integrity whom we know well.

Opportunities
With the world economic downturn, I guess everyone is trying to cut costs.  Quality high-tech engineering services are obviously very expensive, and outsourcing to India and China is very rarely the right fit - mostly due to cultural and language differences.  

I believe that the weakness of the South African rand puts us in an excellent position to provide leverage for a Silicon Valley based entrepreneur.  Our time difference (+- 10 hours) also creates the perfect opportunity for a 24-hour "skunk-works" type of scenario.  Have a look at the short company profile I've attached - the second page provides a sampling of the talent at iKubu.

We really want to build relationships with like minded people who we can team up with to change the world.  Are you up for it?  

Live long and prosper
znarF
