Hi Guys,
I am looking for some open source contributor to work on
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 -

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.com
where 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.
Thanks
Ashish
