Thanks for the feedback & suggestions.

>> * Showing $$/hr on the first page (summary page) is going to lead a race to the bottom. Most people are fixated on $$ and will immediately gravitate towards the lowest price possible. Not good for anyone

You got a point but dont you think not revealing rates helps businesses more than engineers? you know businesses can lie about other engineers quotes to drive down prices.

>> * Provide a “get to know me” page where each person can include more about details about their work history and expand on bullet 2 above.

Engineers can add their blog/github repo/portfolio site to their profile.
