Hey guys, finally picked a business idea from the many I have been tossing around in my head. It is a web-based business, and I need some help getting this thing from my little worthless idea to something awesome. I will post my idea in detail once the business starts, but for now this is all I can share...

This website will have MANY users. It will need to process many orders reliably, and buyers and sellers will need to register an account on the site. There will be a kind of "daily deal" section, and the sellers will be able to post a "menu" of items for sale. From there the buyers will pick which items they want, and then proceed to process an order. This site needs to process orders reliably, fast, and secure. Since I only know simple HTML, I need help getting this thing kicking arse. I will keep you all posted with my process and progress.

Some Questions:

1) From the info above, what programming languages would I need to use? I'm not completely computer illiterate, but I am also in college so I have limited time. This leads me to my next question...

2) I have $6k at the moment to spend on this venture. Do you think a web programmer could set this up for that? I want a quality website, so no lazy World of Warcraft reject. I need a freakin killer! I will save for one if I need to.

3) What programming languages would be best for this?

This is definitely Fastlane, and I look forward to sharing my successes and failures along the way.

Thanks for reading,
Lee
