Dave Lavinsky

Phi Beta Iota: Links have been added. Original Press Release

  • Elance, Guru, and Odesk – “These are the 3 old favorites for finding contractors that still got it. I suggest posting a project on each of these and hiring the best from among the total responses,” said Lavinsky.
  • OnlineJobs.ph – “A subscription site that gives you access to hiring skilled workers in the Philippines directly, often for $300-400 per month full-time!”
  • Amazon's Mechanical Turk – “This is a marketplace where you can request tasks requiring human intelligence-tasks from getting questions answered to writing product descriptions for you.”
  • Fiverr – “It amazes me all of the things you can get from people here for just $5. Professional voiceovers, fast logo designs, and all kinds of writing and search engine marketing gigs are available here.”
  • 99Designs – “A great place to get multiple designs or logos made BEFORE choosing a provider to pay. This is valuable if you've ever paid someone to make a design you didn't like.”

Theophillis Goodyear: Stolen Truths

Corruption, IO Impotency, Knowledge
Theophillis Goodyear

Sometimes it occurs to me that all of our complex terminologies tend to overcomplicate the simplest and most important things, when sometimes a simple phrase can cut through all the illusory complications.

Truth is the most precious of all human commodities. And the people and institutions who control virtually everything in our world . . .

Nah, the world of ends.   .   8. The Internet's three virtues:   .     a. No one owns it   .   b. Everyone can use it   .   c. Anyone can improve it   .   9. If the Internet is so simple, why have so many been so boneheaded about it?   .   10. Some mistakes we can stop making already

Read full expansion of the above points.

Phi Beta Iota:  Written in 2003, this essay remains up on the Internet and remains a solid reference for the continuing cognitive dissonance.
