Tell HN: MIT/Startup Hacker in SF seeking short-term opportunity

So here's the story: I came to SF this weekend for a conference and to touch base with some friends. Instead of flying home, I've decided to move my plane ticket to the middle of August. In the next few weeks I'd like to make some new friends and earn some money.

I'm looking for a short term opportunity. I'm really open to anything, but I imagine something like a proof of concept, or something auxiliary to your core app, would be ideal. If you have an app with a long list of bugs you'd like shortened, I can do that as well.

Most of my experience is in Javascript (jQuery), Rails, and PHP. This is where I can work the quickest, but I'm also happy to learn new things. I'm very product minded, so if you don't quite have everything defined it shouldn't be a problem.

About Me: Self-taught programmer with some cool personal projects under my belt, as well as lots of freelancing and 1.5 years experience at funded startups in NYC.

Some notable personal projects: KangaCruise.com - My current side project, right now it's only really notable because it's live. I built just about everything there. Bootstrap/jQuery/Rails/Heroku.

Sidaza (2011) - Same SMS experience as GroupMe, but also supported true MMS. I made this work by routing messages through 10 Android phones sitting on my living room floor. It sounds ridiculous, but to my knowledge there is still no better way.

iFoneArcade (2007) - The first real-time games for iOS. They were Chess, Battleship, and similar turn-based games. There was no App Store yet, so this was AJAX polling in mobile Safari, and we didn't have fancy stuff like jQuery.
