Hi Guys, I am looking for some open source contributor to work on https://github.com/pocha/**hashag <https://github.com/pocha/hashag> . Its a pretty basic rails app with some heavy oAuth though. The version so far is done by me & a friend Utkarsh. The readme has pretty detailed instructions to get started. A quick brief about the app - its called hashAG. Basically it is suppose to parse a user's tweet with hashtag #ag & publish it to his angellist startup status. Angellist (angel.co) is a community developed by two Indians in silicon valley to connect entrepreneurs with investors. Usually lot of entrepreneurs (like me) use twitter as a channel to market their startup. You would get detailed information on how & why here - http://groups.google.com/**group/ninjaclan/browse_thread/** thread/549762aa22a89540<http://groups.google.com/group/ninjaclan/browse_thread/thread/549762aa22a89540> I personally need this app so be assured that this would be something that would go into production. I believe that there are lot of small but industry relevant stuff can be developed & I look to engage college students for the same. I also look to create a segment on stalkninja.comwhere people can source contributors for their open source project. If anybody is interested to work on this, let me know & this could be the first project there. You would need to show your competency by at least able to install & run the current app on a heroku server. I can add you as contributor to the github project & we can then take it off from there. If you are able to do the same, drop me a mail with your heroku url. If you get stuck & need help, feel free to ping. You would need basic knowledge of rails, git & heroku to be able to deploy & then start tweaking with the code.
