Even if it's just a quick-and-dirty list, or an appstore link, it would make a huge difference if the applicants had at least some idea about you.

Btw, for what timeframe are you looking for people? I don't think many people would want to live there for years. It would be fun for a few months, but I assume you wouldn't want to hire anyone not willing to commit for more.

Yeah, more information is coming. It'll be ready for the HN Who's Hiring thread in a few days -- I just saw this story pop up so I figured I'd link it in here too even though most of the site is still a placeholder.

Oh, and we're open to negotiation on timeframes -- though we wouldn't be looking to accept less than six months, ideally at least 12.
