On a completely unrelated note, my brother sent me an article about a website called Fiverr. The premise is interesting and has my wheels turning. "What would you be willing to do for $5?" You can create a profile and post anything you'd be willing to say, do, create, perform, etc. - just ensure that you're content with a $5 payout. From there, it's a marketplace like any other. There are some pretty standard services offered, like proofreading a paper or recording a birthday message in a celebrity soundalike voice. And then there's the not so common, such as sending a jpg image of a custom-made blackmail note. Yeah, you know the kind, the magazine letters glued to paper type of stalker note. Although I could clearly post up some helpful writing or marketing skills, I'm actually trying to brainstorm a quirkier set of skills. If no one responds, it's no loss to me. Otherwise, maybe I could be putting a few Lincolns in my pocket.
