follow-up on elance

[Dick Margulis <margulis -at- fiam -dot- net>]

Someone--I forgot who--posted last week asking for experiences with 
elance and got several negative responses.

As I've mentioned in the past, I've used emoonlighter.com to obtain 
freelance graphic services and been happy with the results. I learned 
today that they have either changed their name to or been acquired by 
guru.com.

I don't know if the quality of their service is affected by this change, 
and I have never dealt with them as a provider, only as a buyer. However 
I did just go to their new home page and notice the following categories 
under the Writing / Editing / Translation heading:

Creative Writing/Editing; Technical Writing/Editing; Copy 
Writing/Editing; Grant/Proposal Writing; Article/News/Press Release 
Writing; Resume Writing; Song/Poem Writing; Report Writing; 
Screen/Script Writing; Speech Writing; Web Content Writing; Book 
Writing; Translation

So if you are interested in being a provider of one or more of those 
services, you could review portfolios of and correspond with some of the 
current providers. Interestingly, the site lists the amount earned by 
each individual through the service, so you can get an idea of how 
successful this has been for them.
