Hi Eric, thanks for getting back to me so quickly. I have indeed contacted
several developers. I got your address at
http://mozdev.org/pipermail/project_owners/.

I'm afraid I'm too small an entity for you to work with as you usually
work with Fortune 500/1000 companies. I can't afford you.

But thank you anyway for getting back to me :-)

All the best,

Marc.

Hi Marc,
I imagine this was a mass-mailing on your part. Although I am interested,
I do not bid on a project basis. I typically work with Fortune 500/1000
companies rather than individuals.

Regards,
Eric Jung
p.s. out of curiosity, where did you get my email address?
addons.mozilla.org?

Subject: Seeking Firefox extension developer

Dear Eric,

I saw that you have a background in developing Firefox / Mozilla
extensions. I
was wondering if you might be interested in the following project:

I want to have a Firefox plug-in created that allows the viewing of
multiple Web
pages by "stitching" them together vertically in what would seem like a
single,
continuously scrollable web page. It's an alternative to tabbed browsing.
The idea
is to remove the interruption inherent in having to go from one tab to
another and
instead enable a viewing of a set of multiple Web pages in one
uninterrupted,
continuous "scrolling down" motion.

This viewing mechanism is already implemented in a server-side Web-based
application at www.quickbrowse.com, a service I created in 1999. But that
mechanism nowadays does not quite work anymore with an increasing number
of
Web pages, mainly because of issues with authentication mechanisms,
certain
sorts of Web page contents, etc.

For a demo of a stitch-together page please see www.mflinks.com/qb. This
shows
a Quickbrowse page made up of pages from CNN, the Washington Post and
Yahoo. It also shows the problems of the current server-side mechanism,
such as
the significant loss of original page layouts.

The idea is to do it client side, through a Firefox extension, and thereby
make it
work with any and all kinds of Web pages.

As with a set of tabbed pages, one should be able to save a Quickbrowse
page as
a single bookmark.

The "Quickbrowse plug-in" should work with all kinds of Web page content
(Flash, etc) and any username / password / subscription authentication
mechanism. Cookies, passwords etc need to be cashed as needed. Each
individual
page needs to be displayed with all formatting and components (JavaScript,
Flash
etc) intact and operational.

I may want to integrate Google text ads as a revenue option.

I expect that additional ideas for features will surface as the specs are
discussed in detail.

If you are interested in creating this plug-in, please let me know a
ballpark figure
of what you would charge for it (I am just a one-man operation, with a
modest
budget...) and how long it would take you to develop something like this.
Also, if
you could send me a resume with a list if past projects that would be
great.

Also, please feel free to pass this on to others who might be interested.

Thank you!

Marc

Subject: [Project_owners] Somebody wants to hire me to write a Firefox
extension (or perhaps not).

Hi,

Somebody emailed me asking if I were interested in being paid to write
an extension, but when I replied my message was caught in his spam
filter. He must be wondering why nobody is replying to his inquiries
despite dangling $$$ at potential developers :)
