Date.fm co-founder Andrew Chalkley says that Heroku has been integral in bringing his company from the red and into the black in just six months.
“Heroku enables us, as a very lean startup. We’re not venture-backed. We’re not going into debt, we’re financing everything through our app development,” says Chalkley. “We didn’t want to go down the route of traditional hosting because we didn’t want to deal with scaling up the traditional way. We know that if and when we need it, we can scale our architecture with relative ease compared to the traditional way of doing things.”
We are looking for an illustrator to draw black line-drawings of scenes for an iPad coloring book. The assets can be delivered digitally or on paper.

We’re looking for someone to draw 32 pages of black line-drawings for $500. The topic of the drawings will be discussed. The art would need to be relatively simple scenes, but stylish. We would have the exclusive right to use these images in perpetuity for all purposes.
