thank you, I was just having a down moment (rough day in startup-ville) and this totally made me laugh.

Was the rough day related to http://HangWith.me?

heh, yeah it was :)

I REALLY need to find a partner who can program better than I can. My skills are wasted on hacking. Can get frustrating at times.

Have you tried raising a flag out there for anyone to help?

'out there' is a big scary place :)

I have and I have a few people offering to help and a few more offering to help - for a fee. The frustration comes with the problem that the people who offer to help never do and the people who I hire to help often move much slower than my patience can allow for. This is mostly due to the fact that I am broke and can only afford people who do this on the side.

Don't get me wrong it's not that I cannot program, thus solving my own problem, it's that after years of trying, learning and effort I still suck at programming. What takes me hours to do takes [you] minutes. That's hours away from everything else. Hours of frustration and hours of face-bashing.

I am actively attending meet-ups, I am here and numerous other places and I am actively 'socializing'.

The great irony is that it is easier to find users than it is to find a partner.

made a job posting. You should email me :)
