I will build your prototype
I worked with Chris on the prototype of Typewire (just 48 hours that time!). Our mutual friend had told me he was great, but I was still blown away. $5k for two weeks of his time is a steal.

By 48 hours you mean six workdays?

Nope! He means 48 contiguous hours :D It was originally built for the node knockout competition.

Oh, I see... Did you guys work for 48 hours straight? I find I get a bit paranoid at the 36 hour mark, but it gets better after that.

No, we slept somewhere on the order of 4-5 hours both nights and had short breaks while awake for food/sanity.

Ah, I love development sprints. I remember writing and launching the first (crude) version of historious over the weekend, it was amazing fun...
