Secret Service Volunteers

Posted on 11.15.05. Tagged with , , , , , , All

Daniel and I have been working on an idea I dreamed up over lunch one day. We have it built, working, and rockin'. I'm really really really excited about it.

Pink Panther says shhhh!It's a web service, that you will appreciate if you like music. I'm not entirely ready to introduce it yet, but it has gotten to the point where I need some volunteers to help it succeed.

Who: Anyone who appreciates music and wants to help create something totally new.
What: You don't have to be a web guru at all, it's pretty much copy/pasting stuff, and browsing band websites. Even you could help Mom.
How Long: As little or as much as you want. I would say atleast 15 minutes a day, for atleast a week.
What you get: Satisfaction of helping a greater cause. Name mentioned on thank you page. If we ever go with "Pro" accounts, that too..

I'm looking for as many people as possible to help out. If you are interested be sure to leave your email in the email field (where nobody will see it but me) and leave a comment saying you're interested, and I will share the Backpack page with you so we can get started!.

If you do volunteer, I kindly ask that you hold off on mentioning the site on your blog till we are fully ready for a public launch. :).

Update: I'm closing off volunteering for a bit. Thanks so much for supporting me. Feel free to still comment though, as I will probably reopen it in a week.

I've shared the project page with all of you. You will be getting an email from 37 Signal's Backpack service asking you to create an account (if you havent already). Sign up (its free) and you can see and edit the page.

Thank you guys, so very much. The more the merrier, so keep commenting!

I've added you Timen. Thanks to all the volunteers so far.

I'm closing it off for a bit so it doesn't get overcrowded. I might reopen it in a few days so feel free to still comment.

I am interested to see what it is, I use to work for a publicly listed online music site (think something similar to iTunes) developing little music artist tidbits. So count me in!
