Hi Lindsey,

I wanted to thank you for sending out our first email in search of
website designers for our business.  We had a great response rate and
have filled two of our three positions.  One CS student advised that we
make some clarifications to our initial bulletin.  Would you mind
resending the description under the stars below?

Thank you so much for your help.  We really appreciate the assistance
you have given us in our startup phase.

Sincerely,

Ryan Kaplan

We previously sent out an email inviting experienced student web
designers to consider meeting with us to learn more about a new website
we are designing.  We selected two student web designers from our first
round of interviewing.  Now we are conducting a second round of 
interviews to find our third and final designer.   He or she will join 
us as partners to construct the actual site.

Below is an updated description of myself, the project, and the skills
needed:

My name is Ryan Kaplan and I am a student at the School of Management.  
With the help of my two business partners, we have developed an
incredibly unique and exciting business plan for a new website. We have
spent months talking with Manhattan-based investors and industry big
shots who have lauded the idea, as well as provided us with invaluable
insight into the industry.

The idea is thoroughly developed, and interested investors are waiting
in the wings to fund our expansion if the site succeeds at BU. The
designers would have to experienced with Java, JavaScript and HTML, as
well as build a website that has (but is not limited to) the following
capabilities:
1) Personalized Accounts
2) Ability to upload pictures
3) Built-in Google-maps or equivalent function
4) Search/list items by area code
5) Website can send text-messages to cell-phones

Please note, we are not trying reinvent the wheel.  If there are certain
aspects that the developers feel can be taken from pre-made programs, it
is at their discretion to do so.

If you are interested or would like to learn more, please contact us at
