We are primarily a search engine marketing company but we also do design and development of websites for businesses of all sizes. We have some immediate requirements for someone to help us with the potential development of a small shopping cart solution that will work with DjangoCMS (our CMS of choice at the moment). We'll also be looking to work with you ongoing, as we bring in more projects. We have a number of things in the pipeline, and also a fairly major internal project which we're going to be looking for someone on a more full-time, permanent basis. If you're keen to apply or want to find out more, then please get in touch with me - alex at queryclick.com - with information about yourself, any portfolio you have or at the very least - 2 or 3 of the sites you have developed in Django. Also if you have any projects or code on places like Google Code or GitHub, that would be great to check out. I look forward to hearing from you.

I'm keeping it fairly informal and low key but I'm going to do a bit of hacking on code and fancy going and getting some drinks at the weekend too. This is basically an open invitation to anybody interested and to tell you to put it in your calendars. The basic plan is; code on saturday and sunday day and hit the pub on saturday night. No doubt get some food too. I don't have a particular venue in mind, happy to take suggestions otherwise I'll just figure something out depending who wants to come along. If you can give me a heads up that your thinking of joining in, that would be great. Cheers, Dougal -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:
