I've used task rabbit a few times, but I won't ever use them again after this change. The way that it worked before let you post any task, and find the exact right person, at the lowest possible price (thanks to the bidding system

Yeah, it was just my attempt at calculating it based on census data. If I were to update it I would do so using a more standardized score like gini-simpson, which I was unaware of at the time...

Yep, I just did searches on Flickr and grabbed ones that I liked tagged with the city, but they could be totally wrong!

As someone who will be in the same position as your wife not too far from now, this is both good to know and frustrating. Have you ever had people refer to your taking care of the kids as "baby sitting"? I've heard that one i

I tried flightfox when I was planning a vacation last year. I had thought it was more like taskrabbit where people would compete for the lowest price and was confused/disappointed when it told me I had to pick someone. Unfortunately no

I wish that were true. I have never enabled Google plus, yet there is a profile page out there for me. So when I got to plus.google.com I get the "Set up your account!" page but there is a link for me at https://profile
