Fancy sharpening 900 pencils for $150? Or picking out brown M&Ms into a bowl for a fee?

More people here are hiring strangers through service networking sites to check off their to-do list.

The concept is simple: Someone has an errand and puts it up on the site.

People then bid for the job, or agree to do it for a pre-set fee.

Did a job through the site the other day. Helped someone pick up his posters from a print shop near my workplace. A few small bugs here and there but overall it was quite smooth. SMS notifications are pretty cool also. Just a shoutout to the team: Jia you guys!
