Default Third party Developers... Or Something.

Kevin and Alex were talking in one of the diggnation episodes about "Third party Developers" (I think that's what they called them) and developing things for the Iphone. They talked about how one could pay a person to develop an app and then bank off the app. Well I have a lot of ideas for software that I would like to see come to reality and paying a person to do all the work would be a dream come true. Can any one point me to some websites where I could find people to do things like this for me?

Peace, GROWEED

BTW - I develop for the iPhone ... but have my hands full with my own projects ... maybe once I get these things off the ground.

He outsourced to India (I think) definately offshore. Hired the guy via elance while he was still at G4. I dont think Kevin actually has any rogramming background. He's a tech savvy ideas guy.

Michelangelo, DaVinci, Warhol, all outsourced. It's the idea that matters. Skill is good, too. But not priority.

He studied Computer Science for a while but I don't believe he finished college.
