Finding freelancer peers to sub-contract and refer work to. When you're overflowing with work, it's more difficult than ever to find people through events / traditional slow networking, and there's no good online alternative.
I wish there were a site that wasn't transaction-focused, that provided a way to find people with specific skill sets, and that provided search / profile data that was specific to freelancers vs job seekers (e.g. what's your hourly rate? what's your availability? are you looking for sub-contracting / referrals / collaborations?). And most importantly, that connected to the social graph and provided a good reputation system. If the people I've worked with before aren't available, the next best is people they've worked with before, and rated positively.
