softwarereroon Sell HN: Do you have a side project you want to sell?

http://shops.com.py

A platform for web shops build with Java and MongoDB. The frontend is Spanish but the backend is easily translatable (German already done) and multi-currency. I would sell the site or pair with somebody who knows how to market it.

softwarereroon Poll: What's your favorite static site generator?

I have done several sites with FMPP/Freemarker in the last 10 years and it still good. Right now I am using Brunch for a web app front end and it looks like the future to me.

softwarereroon Ask HN: Freelancer? Seeking freelancer? (November 2012)

I like the idea. I have done nothing but charity work in a long time. This week I released http://diaconia.com.py/ for a local organization.

I would only volunteer for an organization if I can identify with its goals, so I would appreciate if you'd publish them.

There are also projects listed like bug hunting or performance tuning. You should publish the technologies used in these cases too.

I am working full stack and have recently used Java, Scala, Groovy, Akka, Play Framework, MongoDB, H2, Lucene, HTML, CSS, jQuery and Lighttpd.

softwarereroon Ask HN: who started something in 2012 that didn't or won't become profitable?

I launched a Spanish site http://agrupados.biz which is a search engine for clasified ads in Paraguay. I learned Scala und Apache Lucene this way, now I'm hoping to get it at least covering its hosting costs. The site is up aprox. 3 month now and I had almost no visitors before paying Google.

2 days ago I started a Google AdWords campaign so people may find the site, I spend $2.62 so far and got 95 visitors and even won $0.10 with AdSense. Today I added a PayPal donate button.
