I've been thinking about the "Sell my car" idea for a bit. I think it's ripe for new thinking. If you're interested and in the SF Bay Area, ping me at [email protected]

We're ramping up an effort to change the way private parties change ownership of a premium used vehicle ($15K+ through marketplace such as Craigslist); we're looking for a mobile dev guy to complement our skill set.

Our background: hardcore backend dev; basic front-end; understanding of the used car market. We have a world-class UI/UX designer helping us out as well. Our weakness: native mobile app dev (we've done some app development before but nothing too serious).

location: SF

send inquiries to: [email protected]

EDIT: btw, this is super early, so this isn't some kind of "be our first employee" deal disguised as co-foundership.

Anyone interested in exploring car sales ideas in SF/Bay-Area? I have one for which I did a bunch of market research and it looks promising. Happy to explore more.

some vague graph from this year's Cassandra Datastax conf: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/BMfdOagCcAAxMVU.jpg
It's funny because Facebook is actually where Cassandra was born. Now under the Apache umbrella, it's odd that they didn't even mention it in that article. It's got by far the most momentum in the distributed database league.
