Imminent job specs for projects to get 100+ unemployed IT people a job in Pretoria

[Alwyn Botha]

In preparation for posting IT job specs I wrote the following: VISION and MISSION; please read and post your comments. Thanks.

I still want to start these projects on 6 June in (still not found office space) in Pretoria East.

I really would have preferred the 100+ developers to jointly develop OUR SHARED VISION, but since your forum people want details; I HAD TO put this on the table.

VERY few people now even look at my previous post - since they saw there is no job specs there.
http://mybroadband.co.za/vb/showthr...et-100-unemployed-IT-people-a-job-in-Pretoria

So maybe a super moderator can close that thread now; pointing people to this thread - so we have interactions only on this one thread. thanks moderator.

I also need permission to post around 5 different posts tomorrow for 5 very different skills sets. If moderators then see I do not abuse the system, I can post another 5 posts on FRI. Each post will describe jobs for 1 to 5 different people ( I am not posting 100 different listings; since that will overwhelm the listings. ) Is that OK - lets see how this posting and tomorrow goes ? thanks

I will still post the one liner OUTLINES of job specs for developers to implement these visions ... around 2 - 3 pm IN THIS THREAD.

Vision statement
============
Every person in the world gets their own website (domain name) when they become able to read.

They are in FULL control of all aspects of their websites' content.

They have affordable access to many, varied, multilayered, multiaspect digital dashboards where they can EASILY see larger context opportunities to make their life dreams come true.

They have access to the FULL spectrum of free vs $ 1000 per hour services to electronically implement their ultramicro to globe-spanning multi-industry spanning project ideas.

Oh boy ... By 31 DEC 2017 there is not ONE text, graphic or video ad on ANY website anywhere. The worst online crime is interrupting someone's flow via ads. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_(psychology)

Many commercial companies from 1 person to 1 million people in size realize record growth via microfees, memberships and the 100s of other ways to market their goods (no ads).

Every website exposes all the data it wants to via apis and easy to use CSV type data exports for expert user usage. No more scraping - within a second you can direct interface to the data you need.

Mission
=====
To facilitate the realization of the prioritized and diagrammed interrelated visions of EVERYONE and every commercial and charity company globally.

This everyone does via vast new hierarchies of data exposing apis. Our global core api contribution is ... (to be kept secret till 6 June )

We only conceptualize and architect these layers of related apis. We have a small proof of concept for each api, but we leave the intensely awesome job of designing and running graphical rich, interactive data dashboards to 100 000s of Internet browser extension developers; smartphone app developers and dynamic website developers.

We have microscopic market share in the +- 70 areas that cover our vision; just to get real-life experience of the topics at hand; so that our jointly developed visions are based on real-life experiences.

We are generalists; dabbling in 70 topics each day to enable us to become enlightened of interrelated priorities and AWESOME value multiplying micro to macro structures.

- - -

I am busy with writing broad outlines of job specs for developers to implement these visions and will start posting it THUR 26 May ... IN THIS THREAD.

Surely you can already see the many intensely awesome jobs that are ALL unfilled.

Unfortunately I still have to state the only one negative explicitly; and I fear that moment; so for now I am getting everyone charged up with the positives.

Comments and gentle criticisms?

at this pont you only looking for devs? am I right?

can you maybe elaborate on the languages you want to use?

 

[ozziej]

Okay, just some questions. In simple terms, what does it do? You use lots of buzzwords, I get the idea, but this is far too esoteric and "cloudy" to mean much. I would suggest that you trim down the buzzwords and make it easy to read and understand.
You are basically saying that you will hold all the data of everyone? Are you sure you want to do that?
This is pretty much what Facebook does already... You ready to compete?
You do realise that it opens you up to people trying to hack and attack it? Scrape "clients" data.
How are you going to get people to upload this information. What incentive do they have to upload ? There is a huge disincentive - data theft. Me personally, no thanks.
Why would they trust you over a government? over Facebook?
How are you going to monetise this? Who is paying for it ? Someone has to pay for the servers, the data storage, the developers, etc.

Hi eg2505

ALL I have now is my vision.

So when we start on 6 June we need managerial, tech, 1 pentium 4 data centre, 1 switch carried in under our arms and set up shop.

There will be enough for the full spectrum of front end, back end, management, etc. to do to set up all those from NOTHINGNESS.

I will post oneliners for many immediately apparent skills and jobs.

But on day one everyone will take part in awesome ( my favorite word ) group discussions figuring out our missions, vision, values, and daily and weekly goals and priorities. I think this is important to have this TEAM THING on day one; agreed ?

- - -

Languages; the usual php, python, mysql. Whatever other popular front and back end + smartphone apps. Languages used for WordPress, Drupal, joomla.

Language with toolsets to get to twitter, linkedin and youtube apis. etc.

Pentium 4? Seriously?

hi

good questions

I would suggest that you trim down the buzzwords and make it easy to read and understand.

ok, will do that over weekend.

You are basically saying that you will hold all the data of everyone? Are you sure you want to do that?
This is pretty much what Facebook does already... You ready to compete?

We will only hold the exposed data that websiteowners let us. All the millions of apis from everyone - NO - I do not plan to keep that under our wing. I will reveal 6 June what our core competence data API topic will be.

ABSOLUTELY NOTHING WE DO IS EVEN REMOTELY SIMILAR TO THAT (*(*(*(#$#
AND IT NEVER WILL BE. Only when we get started will the MASSIVE OPPOSITES of us vs anyone be clearly apparent.

Our network of platforms will enrich and benefit the people adding value to the platform. Profits, benefits will be shared far and wide; to generate multiplying feedback loops of more value in, more value out, etc. WE will not sit on billions while billions of our users starve from being exploited and supersickeningly beguiled. How gruesomely sick is that?

>>>How are you going to get people to upload this information. What incentive do they have to upload ? There is a huge disincentive - data theft. Me personally, no thanks.

People will expose somewhat similar to RSS - they already do that. Incentive structures for website owners cross our broad range of interest areas: summary; its complicated; BUT incentives will be multi-factors and very enticing. Have not thought detail through much yet, but I agree; its VERY import.


>>>>>>Why would they trust you over a government?

What we are going to accumulate is already public knowledge via other smaller companies exposing the exact same stuff.

>>>How are you going to monetise this? Who is paying for it ? Someone has to pay for the servers, the data storage, the developers, etc.

We will discuss during June. The usual per user limits; membership fees.

That one comp. I refer to in my post nr one turnover R 1 billion a month on user api limits and membership fees.

Pentium 4? Seriously?

Jip;

We start with a zero budget.

That will be in our historical archives; we started as a company using this dinosaur.

There is a rule that entrepreneurs know. You should be able to describe what your business does in once sentence.
Another one I heard, is that unless you are able to describe your idea to your grandmother, you don't understand the idea yourself.

Your thread was in IT Jobs so I don't think the issue is with the detail of your idea like you seem to be under impression of, but rather with where are your going to get the money to pay 30K to developers every month. It doesn't seem you have investors and your idea seems very convoluted and complex that it could take at least a year to develop, so the question is, where are you going to get the money to pay the developers for the first months?

If you expect them to work for free then just spit it out.

 

[ScottulusMaximus]

Wot?

 

[Purply]

Sounds like another myspace invention ?

>>>It doesn't seem you have investors and your idea seems very convoluted and complex that it could take at least a year to develop, so the question is where are you going to get the money to pay the developers?

Correct no investors :-(

This is that topic I feared.

The plan is first month set up shop and develop minimal functionalities so that month nr 2 we will be earning incomes from most of our focus areas.

Things seem complex, the vision is vast, but if you spend and hour really thinking through what is involved; the absolute minimum is very easy to develop standalone to get going. Really.

The multi levels of integrated, value multiplying stuff will take longer. Even our month 2 of value adding will hopefully ?? excite 1000s of ZA websites.

I have not stated our core api focus yet, that will still your worries. Thats the mill. a month cash cow.

Also, I have 2 awesome different projects that nearly all front end developers can immediately earn income the full second month.

But we need month one to lay down some digital foundations.

 

[Alwyn Botha]

Wot?

World of Tanks — Free Online Game

That's the most coherent of all your posts in this thread.

Hi

Totally misunderstood sorry

Every person in the world gets their own website (domain name) when they become able to read.

- - -

We will not be a global website host; independent webhosts do that.

Our focus is gathering specific data points from websites and making it available to the SAME website owner for a fee.

Like google analytics - nicely aggregated stuff about your OWN website thats so awesomely done you pay for it. Silly but true and understandable.

How is this different to Facebook? Is it that Facebook is free and your idea you pay for?

Do you honestly think an unemployed developer can build a nice looking website frontend. If they could they wouldn't be unemployed. For your site which will be used by millions, if you not have the most attractive unique performance efficient UI , users will simply not even attempt using it. There are very few developers out there who can design UIs like that.

You want these developers to develop frontends and backends that will be used by millions of users. Unemployed IT people won't know how to architect, design and develop sites that large. People who do already have very well paying jobs.

No investors
No business plan.
No project plan
Just blind faith on idea that doesn't seem innovative but just a complex mashup.
Scales incredible after a month and income in the 2nd month.

This doesn't sound like a startup but more like a cult who believe in spaceships

 

[SauRoNZA]

All I see is VISION...with very little to no substance.

The supposed "mission" is completely missing.

/nope.

 

[Jet-Fighter7700]

I have to admit he right, I reading your ideas, and they seem so far out its in another universe entirely,
why would anybody jump onto your idea? and like I said yesterday, you trying to reinvent the wheel,

myspace,facebook,google + they all exist and many share exactly the same "vision"
many ideas like this have come and gone, what makes your different?

you havent answered the no1 question, how will you make money.....

I don't see anything wrong with humble beginnings, every major idea started from a garage or a bedroom.

 

[Jet-Fighter7700]

I don't see anything wrong with humble beginnings, every major idea started from a garage or a bedroom.

same here, Apple,Microsoft,Google are all "backyard operations"

but they all had a mission that was clear cut, and things developed from there, mistakes were made, sure, but they persevered.....

I still asking, what are you actually trying to do? and how will you compete with the big boys?
what is your main selling point?
