New York – New Yorker Chris Hughes is inviting public input for his new nonprofit startup website, Jumo.  Hughes, one of the co-founders of Facebook and President Obama’s “Internet man” for his 2008 social networking presidential campaign, describes Jumo as a global platform to  connect everyday individuals to  issues and organizations relevant to them; to foster lasting relationships and meaningful action to speed the pace of global change.

Hughes’ global startup is also hiring developers for its New York, NY location.  “Candidates with a longstanding interest in global development issues (i.e. global health, good governance, education, free-flowing capital markets, etc.) are strongly preferred.”
