Paypal also takes credit card.
unless you are forecasting a revenue in ten of thousands, it's better to use Paypal as everything it's setup

Looking for a technical co founder who is an avid web application Developer (front and back end) to join our effort in building social networking site.
We are currently looking to start a social networking site that has potentials to excel in a market where Facebook dominates, and would like a technical co founder to join this effort.
We have a step-by-step plan to launch this site. We have sets of minimum requirement needed to launch and we also need to develop more customized features onto it. That’s where you come in, to customized these features and put the finishing touch on the site. Once the minimum requirements are done, we will launch the site in beta mode. We are hoping to launch the site within couple months after you are on board (the launching time is depending on full time/part time work you are doing as the technical co founder). Then when the YC Winter 2012 program application starts, we are going to apply for the program. Our goal is if we can have few hundreds (or thousands) users base before going into the program, that would be a great achievement.
What we need is someone who is strong in web engineering to help us in technical areas and take it to the next level while we are going to do the testing development of the site, business development, funding, user base, marketing, and opportunities. We are looking for help from the following candidate
- Can-do attitude, never give up, and love to solve problems (there is always a solution to every problem)
- You will be one of the co founder, we are partners. We move forward, fall backward and work together to achieve great things.
- software development experience as an web/internet engineer and experience in building back end web engine.
- Strong knowledge and proven hands-on experience with PHP, MySQL, Javascript, AJAX, CSS
- Desire and ability to learn, excel, and 100% commitment to success.
- Must be located in Bay Area (or willingness to relocate) as we will work together day and night to make it happen
- Prefer that you are available for full time to develop (as you will be working with one of the co founders on daily basis as he puts his effort full time on this), but we can discuss what you need and required in discussion. What's really important is that you want to work with us, we want to work with you, and we are in it together.
- Strong desire to work in a startup, prior experience gets bonus points
All in all, we are looking for a passionate and genius web developer who likes social interaction, build sites, and is always challenged to make something better for the world. When we combine your coding prowess with the vision on where we are going, we can only move forward.
A little bit about us.

Why diving in social networking market with Facebook domination?
Because we believe that the social networking site has a lot of potential to grow because as of now, it has only Facebook in it, and the market will give us the chance the grow (considering what Google+ has achieve in its first month of its launch, there will be huge growth to make). It's a great task and huge challenge ahead, but hey, if we are looking forward to it, then you must be too (no die attitude).
If you are interested in joining us and build a social networking site that offers values, please email us your experience at
rush.tea@gmail.com
We are going to look at all candidates regardless of background.
We are looking forward to great success together. We are open to any suggestions or ideas. :)
To be motivated, one need to know his/her goal towards it. I read your post here, but I don't see yoru goal. Your friend has a goal of growing a community around a new programming language. That's why he beats you on stuff. :)
If you want to be motivated, relax, think for a while (take as much time as you need), and decide what you want to do out of it.
For example, if you have hobby of restoring cars, your motivation is the goal of having the restored car in running condition with pristine condition. THat's how car restorer stays motivated because they know what they want to achieve.
Think about what you want to achieve, what goal you want to set...
Come back here with that in mind, and we might be able to help you set up steps to ensure that you can stay motivated.

Nice to have (but not required)
- Developed a production worthy SaaS application
- Experience building large scale applications is desired
- Strong desire to work in a startup, prior experience gets bonus points
- Knowledge of software development processes (Agile, Scrum) is desired but not necessary

We were too late to submit on the YC program for this summer, and we can't wait until YC Winter program to get this started, So we are going to start it now and then apply for the program with a demo (hopefully).
Thanks.
so yeah, in 3rd world country, to be passionate and motivated, money mostly talks. Sad but true
Thanks.
