Great Find: Programmer Meet Designer

Sharing Skill Sets

This morning Cat Morley started my email day with a lovely link that I have to share with you. If lack of a skill or two is holding you back from getting something done. You simply have to check this one out.

Great Find: Programmer Meet Designer

Permalink: http://programmermeetdesigner.com/index.php

Audience/Topic: Programmers, Designers, Writers, Entrepreneurs

Content: Programmer Meet Designer (PMD) was started because the folks behind it understand that no one person has the complete set of skills needed to do all of the things that it takes to run a business online.

PMD helps programmers and designers partner up to make websites and web applications that look and work great. It also lets entrepreneurs and writers find people to work with.

The search engine asks for my job role, the job role I’m looking for, whether the job is paid or unpaid, and the approximate length of the work.

As you might guess by the title, there are more listings for programmers and designers. However, the site has opened itself to writers and entrepreneurs. I found listings for them, but not nearly as many. To check out Programmer Meet Designer, click the logo below.

It never hurts to take a look at what’s out there.

Thanks again, Cat, for sharing your resources.

    Great idea, this collaborator connector. I just wish the listings also showed the skill level required, so that beginning designer/writers like me can easily avoid tasks beyond our scope. :-)

    Hi Rico,
    What a great idea. You should send that to them on their contact form. :)

    Ohmigosh, this is a great idea! It’s definitely something I’ve noticed is missing — there’s more to a website than just the coding and design. Both are cruicial — good design for easy navigation, and good copy for effective marketing. If this PMD site works well, fostering a relationship between these two “different” kinds of service professionals would be win-win. Let each focus on the services they do best. Thanks for sharing your find, Liz!

    Hi Angie,
    Thanks for stopping by. I’ve never seen anything like it either. But the credit goes to Cat Morley. She found it. I just passed it on. :)
