The candidate must have extensive experience with Social Media platforms, including Facebook and Linkedin. Ideally, the candidate must be able to build new feeds and user linkages as in Facebook and Linkedin. The candidate will be developing the website based on the wireframes developed by our graphic designer. This is a rapid deployment project, only developers with demonstrated experience will be considered. Company will take over management and routine updates to the web sites once completed. Skills Required: HTML/DHTML/CSS,PHP,MySQL,HTML,Ajax, Flash JavaScript Social network feed development Social network user linkages based on rules Specific Requirement: ---------------------------- I wanted to give you a better idea of what we are looking to build. We are looking to build a website along the lines of Linkedin.com. Obviously, there are going to be aspects which will differ. Right now, we are in the process of creating the wireframes and will share it with the person who develops the website. We are looking to go live with the minimum working product. If things go well, we do intend to keep the developer on-board to support the application. Please let me know - 1. what your comfort level would be if you were to clone [login to view URL] (obviously, it's going to be quite different) 2. if you have worked on developing similar websites (any examples might help) 3. which technologies would you use 4. would you agree to not share/re-use the code elsewhere 5. what would the best price be to build a site similar to [login to view URL] with some major differences. Answer for all above points is must.
