What's your dream job? Describe it.

Posted on Mar 22nd, 2007 by Chris : Dreamer of the new Chris
This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for March 22, 2007:

My dream job is to work for Zaadz.  I'm a senior software engineer, and my spirituality is philosophy. 

Zaadz can go beyond anything seen on the web.  Literally. 

I'd love to help... in any way possible.  I can bring a lot to the table, too.  We can take things like the quote engine and wikis and lists and use them in ways to connect people at a deeper level than is happening currently -- to allow users to help each other in more than just a forum/email type of way.  We're only scratching the surface of connection.

Some real ideas - we can give the users the ability to:
  • 'bless' other people's work with small (but cumulatively large, potentially) amounts of money
  • buy shares in the work of others, to support that work
  • write quick lists about the current state of mind and thoughts, to make connections, tap synchronicity, and provide ideas where needed
  • help people adjust their reflexes, to set-up better spiritual reflexes, thru memory tools
  • write outlines that fill themselves in, on any topic
  • click an "Inspire Me" button, and have that button work
  • lots more - all can be implemented without that much UI and database structure

I have a particular (favorite) idea that I think is as radical and potent as wiki, and I would give it to Zaadz.  But I need a team to help build it.  It's too much for me to do alone.  But I think it could have tremendous impact, including financial, if it's licensed out. 

Why have I not done this already?  I've had two goes at it - once solo and once with a partner, not getting very far either time.  I need more help and support - more gifts than I've been granted.

But beyond all of this, I'd be most honored just to join the mission.

I can write any type of code in any language, and I've got web 2.0 experience.  I'm considered by many to be a strong leader -- creative, and capable to do most things in the software realm, from database to complex logic to excellent UI, web or back-end.  I'm 31 years old, with 10 years as a software professional.  I am for real, I promise.

This company is my dream job.  I know software and the web, and it's what I do best.  I write philosophy, and believe it's resurgent.  I believe most deeply in Brian's vision.  I wish for it to happen, and to be a part of it.
