RE: Contract

 

Hi Barry, =

Just posting to my blog this =
morning and I
picked up your email.

I’m interested in your offer =
but I
have the following problems.

1)  My company is about to be =
given
funding from Enterprise =
Ireland. =
We’ve

already been told that we’re =
going
to get CORD funding so we’re just =
negotiating

terms. =
 

2) I could give a maximum of 3 days =
a week
to this project but I’m simply not available to do =
more

work as I have a number of =
commitments.  

3) TSSG would have to sub-contract =
my
company rather than hiring me as an individual. On the plus side I now =
work
with Wilie Hayes

so it would be similar to having =
the TSSG
SIP team back.  

4) We’re acquiring office =
premises and
I often work from home. I’d be available for meetings and I could =
be on
site

1 or 2 days a week but I’d =
prefer to
be with my own team most of the week. I’m sure you understand. =

 

We can discuss this next week if =
you’re
free.

 

Sincerest =
regards,

Hi Share.

 

Talking to Willie and Eamonn yesterday – we =
thought
you would be ideal for a SIP job we have coming up. Are you interested =
in a 6
month contract with us? Idea would be that you could work 4 days a week =
with us
and have 1 to yourself. If this is of any interest could you follow up =
with
Eamonn – as he is leading the =
development.

 

Best Regards.

blogshares still doesn’t take bloglines popularity into account

I’m just blog tired here 😀. Just looking at blogshares again. I’m slightly p*ssed off with the inaccuracies in it’s valuation of my blog. I find it ridiculous that given the numbers of people that use the bloglines blog aggregator that the blogshares spiders can’t bypass the single level of indirection implied by their javascript blogroll. It’s a real pain in the ass as I’m damned if I’m going to do any server-side scripting to dynamically embed my roll in the page. Bloglines was recently acquired by AskJeeves which also owns the teoma patented thematic search technology. The idea appears to be the creation of a search engine that is capable of thematically searching and grouping a massive database of RSS blog and news feeds. Which is a pretty nice idea in my opinion. I wish them luck.
