Bitcoin has got me down a lot lately so I decided to code something completely unrelated to money: bartering Grin

www.barterhack.com

Description: It's a service that lets you trade your technical skills for other people's.

  • Use case 1: let's say that you're an expert at programming but you really suck at marketing and you're building a cool new project that could really use some exposure: you could use Barter Hack to offer your programming skills in exchange for some marketing and now you don't need to have any money!
  • Use case 2: you've been doing a lot of front end work lately and you're bored of it. You really want to move on to doing some programming again but you can't until the UI is done. Meanwhile, there's a designer somewhere having the opposite problem who is over having to code stuff. Solution: use Barter Hack to SWAP work.
  • Use case 3: you're an expert at [insert skill here] but not [insert skill here] and you could really use some mentoring. Use Barter Hack to teach each other new skills.
  • Huh?
  • Profit.


Anyway, check it out. The site is only basic at this point as I'm still trying to figure out exactly what people need but there's already listings up.

Nice idea.

Maybe you could implement something like this for bitcoin:

This is a nice idea just as it was in the olden days of trade by barter.
