Hello, sure I can explain further. From your original comment I gather you read the Story: http://thenextweb.com/insider/... . Notice the first 2 words are "Live" and "Coding", combined together in the form of a Hyperlink. When clicked, said Hyperlink takes the reader directly to another document, in this particular case, Live Coding. Hope that helps.
Hello,
during the posting process, had the field called for "Link to Original Source of Original Source(s)" rather than simply "Link to Original Source" of the story, i'd've obliged. I myself am not fond of the idea, but to each his own. Just a story I read moments before. Delete it, edit it, either way is fine by me. No biggie.
Hello,
No affiliation with any parties whatsoever. The numbers you speak of are actually modest, there is life before domain registration so says the white hair growing out of my ears.

The aptly named “Hire a streamer” service works exactly as it sounds. Via the profile of a developer you’ve seen coding on the site, a ‘hire me’ button lets you request their time. The service is completely opt-in for developers, so not everyone will be for-hire.
When you click on the ‘hire me’ button, you’ll be met with a list of disciplines that developer is familiar with, and their hourly rate. Once you’ve booked a session, the money is held in escrow (transactions happen via the site) until the developer has completed the work.
