A world apart from the everday ...

have too much time? don't like to sleep? have no social life?

Then i have the solution for you ....

Looking to earn extra income using your hard-won technical skills?  Rent a Coder lets you locate and bid on coding projects and questions from around the world!  By completing a free registration, you can publicize your skills on the online resume system and receive emails as new bid requests come in. 

They handle all the money collecting so you can concentrate on what you're best at...coding. By the time you've begun work, the buyer's money has already been placed into an escrow account, freeing you from the problem of getting 'stiffed'.

So you bid on published projects and if you win, congrats you've just succeeded on killing whatever little social life you may have had! but then again for some of the coders i know perhaps that would not be so bad :-D

of course, needless to say, i've already signed up and started to bid on numerous projects.

Check out http://www.wizbids.com/ - I heard about them on a DotNetRocks show, the site was made by the guy who did Shrinkster.com.

I've looked into this as well. A pity the bids are pretty low for even some of the complex stuff.

Someone wanted to buy an eBay replicate at a maximum of $400. Shocking I must say! (Only reason that I know of this is that someone pointed out the job). Anyways, I definitely cannot get involved in those types of projects because of the possible conflict of interest... besides, I'm considering of being owned by the company 24/7.

The idea is great, but I can't see people *really* getting work from this.

It's not possible for me to outbid some kid that's bunking school to make some extra drug money.

I have got work from answering an SVG question in a newsgroup though.

*homer simpson* extra drug money... hmmmmm :)

I agree, tried to use the site 18 months ago and found people offering their gimp services for next to nothing at all.
