"Side projects are tricky. You\u2019ve usually got plenty of ideas, but finding the time to work on and eventually ship the product is another thing altogether.\r\nMeeet, a new online community of developers and designers, feels your pain. The network, which is currently in beta, matches up developers and designers to partner\u00A0on a single side project, such as a website or an app. When you\u2019re ready to ship, you can showcase your work to the rest of the community.\r\nWhen you fill out your profile, you add your skills and bio. Projects tag\u00A0the skills they're looking for, so it\u2019s easy to see which ones are a good fit for you.\r\n\r\nThis isn\u2019t exactly a novel idea. Plenty of other design and development communities exist for finding collaborators. However, Meeet aims to differentiate itself with a narrow focus. First, Meeet is for side projects, so it\u2019s not the best place to find a co-founder for that hot startup idea that you just quit your job for.\r\nAlso, Meeet isn\u2019t a fully open community, so the quality of people you\u2019ll find on their should, in theory, be pretty high. You can create a profile on your own, but you\u2019ll need an invite from an existing user\u00A0to post your own projects and apply to others. Projects are limited to a single developer and a single designer. You can only work on one\u00A0idea\u00A0at a time. After all, it's common knowledge that if \u00A0you have too many projects going at once, it's almost impossible to\u00A0get any of them finished.\r\n\r\nSpecialized professional social networks like Meeet live and die by the quality and commitment of their members. Since the community is still in a formative phase, new members can have a direct impact on whether it will succeed. If you\u2019re interested in joining, the first 250 readers can use the code &amp;quot;TNW14&amp;quot; when you sign up to directly request\u00A0an\u00A0invite, subject to moderator approval.\r\n\u27A4 Meeet\r\nImage credit:\u00A0Evgeny Karandaev"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
