This is the exact problem I faced while learning, that lead me to build www.codetuts.co, which essentially provides you with these projects for you to build every week and guides you through the process of building them with detailed tutori

Try adding a "post a job" link. I know I have to sign up to post a job, but many others don't. I like your idea because one doesn't need to keep "buying credits" to bid for jobs. Just one tiny monthly fee and I

Why would someone even consider creating a law to protect an industry that technological and business model "innovations" are threatening to replace. Is that not how the free-market is suppose to keep the whole system efficient? I

Why? ... All jokes aside I'll ask 5 or 6 why's so I can get to the core motivations, but I wont go deeper than the 3rd or 4th why in my marketing otherwise you'll risk making your prospect sceptical and weary of your motivations.
