Elance.com I've been following some discussion on this site through my WorkForWriters listserve. Basically it's a website where subscribers offer up work to be bid on and sell the project in reverse auction style. Naturally, subscribing freelancers have the opportunity to get some freelance work. They have a variety of projects in their Marketplace ranging from writing, production, design, web work, business strategies, legal work, advertising, audio-video -- and what interests me, travel planning and event planning. The basic subscription fee for freelancers is $70/month or $140 for the quarter plus 5% of what you make from the projects (double check that for accuracy). I'm thinking about signing up, but first I'm going to monitor it and see which projects are going for what rates.
