Lately, I have been working on starting a site, called Geekonnekt. It will be focused towards geeks, and will have apps such as news (any kind of "geeky" news, in a blog-ish format), konnekt (like a social platform for the "geeky"), and kikstart (a fundraising platform, where geeks can raise money for any kind of project). I am in need of a couple developers, preferably fluent in PHP/HTML5. I have the basic layout down, and just need a couple others to help me carry this out.
As for time limits and things of the sort, I am going to be very laid back on when things get done. The only thing that concerns me is that they do GET DONE. You can work from anywhere you want to, and it will be fine with me...that's the power of the Internet!
So, if you are good with web dev, contact me on Skype. My username is "thatothertechguy". Thanks for anyone that decides to join me!
Anyone with knowledge in Ruby on Rails may be useful too, as I am beginning to rethink how things will be done. However, people from all sorts of talents will definitely be put to use.
As long as you know your stuff when it comes to HTML, and are willing to learn Javascript and possibly other languages in the future, we could use you.
Edit: Not that I am "dissing" the project, however people need to stop referring to computer programmers as "coders", there's a lot more than "coding" involved.

By "coders," I meant "coders." I already have, or can make anything else needed for this project. I am aware of the work needed.

Not sure what you mean here really, usually when people say "coders" it's a line about application programmers rather than web programmers. Most of the work a programmer does is coding anyway unless they're a web developer or a solo or small team/indy game developer.

Trying not to stray too far away from the topic here but... A coder, is someone who implements scripts. Web software/desktop software, you'd consider them a computer programmer. Ruby is not a scripting language, just like PHP and any other non-hook-based language. If you're programming in PHP, you're not a "coder", you're considered a programmer,(and) not a scripter.

Really? Where did that come from? I've never heard that distinction before, usually if I talk to someone that does scripting they say they're a scripter. Code is just another word for instructions for the computer, denoted as something like source code or machine code, thus a coder would just be a short way of saying "someone that writes code." Same as scripter being "someone that writes scripts."
If you want to be more picky a "programmer" is nothing more than another way of saying "one who makes programs" more or less. Of course all these are denoted by the 'er' suffix.
If you are not interested in the project, don't post anything on it.
Don't pull that card on me.I commented that it was a neat idea, (well, at least I'm being a bit more specific about it now) and stated that I wasn't interested in it before you jumped to conclusions that I wanted to help out.

However, float your boat as you wish.
Isn't it nice when people are so totally rude in one or two posts you instantly know you'd never want to work with them? That's kinda how his post came off to me. If you can't even talk to people commenting on your project you probably can't handle dealing with team members.

Do you have any knowledge in Python perhaps? I may also need some of this.

We are currently working on the signup process, so no, its not quite working yet.
