spur wheel - n; gear wheels that mesh on the same plane.

Welcome to Spurwheel, a website dedicated connecting people with a variety of skill sets over creative and collaborative project.

Spurwheel is about bringing writers and illustrators, actors and costume designers, programers and artists, film directors and musicians together (to list just a few examples) and combine their talents to create something greater than either of them could have accomplished on their own.

At a glance, Spurwheel might seem like a mixing pot for writers and artists, but consider this: Directors need to know about great outdoor locations for film shoots. Event planners need photographers. Small businesses need website developers and programers. Indie-game developers need beta audiences who are familiar with the industry. Authors and web comic writers need (let's all admit it) editors and spell checkers. Nearly every creative project in the world needs a fresh set of eyes and constructive feedback.

With all this in mind, Spurwheel is setting out to change how people connect and collaborate. It seeks to build community and help people network.

In order to get started and join the Spurwheel community, check out our FAQ page.

Here's a few things to look forward to as the site develops:

Projects Page: a place where people can list projects they are working on in order to get feedback or find people with skill sets they need.

Profile Spotlights: sometimes, people don't know what they're missing. Profile Spotlights seeks to remedy that.

User Articles: Users will be able to submit guides, how-to articles, tutorials, or even short blurbs about why they love to do the things they do.

And much, much more....
