Hello,
I'm not using the regular Revolution consultant page for this as I have my "Heavy Hitters" already. What I'm looking for is someone who needs the work or a junior Revolution developer that I can hand off small projects to.

The problem is a small fast growing company and I can't stop seeing how Revolution can solve so many problems. I've been 'ordered' not to take on any more than I already have.

The current problem to solve is a web analytics one. To build an app that goes out gets our access.log files and parse the data out into a comma/tab delimited file. We are not looking for page hits or unique IPs but other unique data.

Sure, this is simple rev stuff and I'm sure there is plenty of code out there already but, I no longer have the time or brain space to handle it (yes the work load is really that bad) and I need to start building a relationship for future work.

So if you are interested.

Thanks,
Simon

Would this be a manually-operated tool, an automatic background app, or a web interface to the data?

Hi Nonsanity,
With a handle like yours you may be a perfect fit.
I'm thinking a background app.

I've done quite a number of page-scraping data mining apps with Rev. One's data even got asked to be use in a court case! (It collected and analyzed land auction data from Second Life, and someone was suing the game makers over a land deal gone bad.)

I don't have a ton of free time, but tools like that usually don't take more than a couple of hours to throw together. I've been using HyperTalk since day one, and was the GEnie staff Hypercard expert back in the proto-internet days of the late 80s early 90s.

The world has gone mad... Land deal gone bad in Second Life, Lawsuit???

I think there is a way to do this here in the forum but for now why don't you hit:

to hand over your email.

Plus you can see what the actual product is there.
