I built this app with Google App Engine which I believe can now be said to have reached the MVP stage. I am looking for a female co-founder because the application is a network for “party girls” who go out a lot: http://hello-1-world.appspot.com/about<p>It is basically an email based app (I built it to learn sending and receiving email with GAE): After an outing with her girlfriends she sends an email to the app and copies her friends. The application increases the ranking of the ccd girls and displays on application’s home page the top 10 ranked girls: http://hello-1-world.appspot.com/<p>At this point, as you can see, there is no branding, and no activity, just the avatars of 2 dummy users. I thought that it would be good to partner with a female founder to develop and market the app because some initial girl must seed the network with her friends.<p>I am posting this note because of the frequent mantra that I read at HN: “release early and release often.” I think this is as early as I think it makes sense to release.
What on earth makes you think there is significant overlap between "party girls" and entrepreneurial-minded women? What you are looking for would be an extremely rare find -- not only are female entrepreneurs unlikely to be party girls, we generally don't like to socialize with them, either. So, don't get your hopes up for the perfect co-founder who groks that demographic to come along.
I personally know some of these so called party girls. The last thing on their minds when they're out doing what makes them party girls is emailing, cc'ing, social scores and ranking. These are women who have a hard time keeping the apps updated on their iPhones, or figuring out how to dial someone who txted them. I really doubt they're going to be enthusiastic about your app. Seems a bit too geeky for this demographic. Plus, cc'ing someone from your phone is a painful process for anyone - even the geeks. Think of how many clicks it takes to cc one person. Who's going to bother picking multiple people from an address book when they're drunk or having fun? I admire your talent, but you should probably use your knowledge of GAE for something a bit more relevant. Good luck, and I hope it takes off.
Please define "party girl". That appears to mean something completely different to me than what you are describing and by other reactions I get the impression that I am not the only one.
As with any co-founders, the best place to look is always within your direct or extended networks. For a female co-founder you trust, a savvy girlfriend or ex that you broke up with on good terms should do the trick.
