Anyone have a fiverr?
« on: January 31, 2012, 04:31:40 PM »
Fiverr is a website where you can sign up little "gigs", and people pay $5 to have you accomplish the task.  Some people sing little songs, others proofread 500 words, some write messages in the sand for you, and so on.  Out of that $5, you get $4 and the other buck goes to Fiverr. 
I thought it was a cute idea, so I signed up and am offering both simple web banners, and drawn pin-up girls.  It might pay for a coffee here or there, but I don't expect too much more out of it. 

For the curious, the website is www.fiverr.com, and my own can be found at fiverr.com/greystorms

Anyone else have one?   :)

20% straight off the top - not a bad gig for the site owners.

Darth - agreed.  I think in this case it's best to do something simple and quick that won't take too much time.  Some people have gigs that IMO are way too much freaking work for $4... It's worth a shot for an extra few bucks here and there, though.

I should offer to read the poem of your choice for $5.

Hmmm. People are also doing tarot spreads. I could do that too, or tellstones, or tea leaves...
