interesting concept. so it is like a mix of linkedin and mailbox. though it is not quite clear if it is intended for HR reps, or exclusively peer to peer. I could see this work very well with referral programs that companies usually have. or is this going to be more of a contract/freelance type of thing?

Thanks. You are absolutely right, internal referrals is one of the use cases. HR can use IPster before opening an opportunity to the outside world. In most cases, they have to use intranet which no one really cares about or reads (at-least not in large organisations).

The initial idea was to help short term contractors and friends/colleagues helping each other.

But I believe IPster should evolve in to something what people want it to be. It just have to be useful.
