Is there a marketplace like this for quick programming tasks?
- tuckbuck 15y agoI think there is a market for quick programming tasks. A small very welldefined task like putting up a jqueryUI stylesheet according to some specification,would fall into such a category.Of course,the problem with programming is the iteration required.

- revorad 15y agoI'm talking about quick jobs. Can you hire someone to help you with some Clojure or Ruby code just for an hour? It looks like it takes an hour just to post a job on elance.
- statictype 15y agoI'm curious about what kind of programming gigs you could confidently have completed in an hour?
- AznHisoka 15y agosame here, that's why I recommended those sites.. I'm not sure who could reasonably expect a programming task to be done in 1 hour... for those so-called "emergencies" or critical tasks, you can't hire someone who has NO idea what the project entails, you need an expert who has worked on it before.
- scooter53080 15y agoI've often wished for a similar marketplace, but more for consulting, than actual programming. When starting out with a new language or new technology (particularly unpopular ones, that don't have good online resources) it would be worth paying an "expert" for an hour or two of their time to ask questions.
