$500 for two Seesmic plugins

Martin Varsavsky offers $500 for whomever creates those two Seesmic Plugins:
1. filter any tweet coming in his timelines that start with @username (Martin does not want to see any reply)
2. filter any tweet from anyone he is following that has not been retweeted X times (Martin wants to use the "does it spread" filter) and that X times can be set in the plugin settings.

All required info to code a Seesmic plugin is available at http://platform.seesmic.com

Someone created the plugins??

@franciscomesa yes, 3 plugins were created but unfortunately some functionalities that Martin wanted are not possible on the API so we (Seesmic) sent some gift vouchers to thank the developers who worked on it without reaching a result.

$500 won't even pay for Visual Studio 2010. That is $250 per plugin. You'll need to find some Indians on Rent-A-Coder. LOL. I tried to create a Safari Entension today but there is a problem with the Apple certificates. Nothing is ever easy so it does not come cheap.

@robrobbins thanks for your feedback we will see if anyone is interested

eh you look like the 'will it blend' guy

@jaok1m Sorry for being negative, but there is growing criticism that technology relies too much on unpaid or poorly compensated labor. So you need to ask youself if you are frittering away your time on unrewarding tasks.

For german tweets the second thing (and the first in a way) is done by rivva.de ;)
