Description
From Melanie Swan at http://www.melanieswan.com/social_finance.html
"Top Coder is a website for programmers build reputations by competing to deliver the best coded solution to a given problem. The earned reputations confer status which presumably could be monetized depending on the objective of the coder. World-is-flat geographically disbursed virtual teams can be assembled ad-hoc based on reputation and skill affinities for the purpose of executing a project and then disbanded.
Rent A Coder is a reputation-based marketplace for software programming projects for development teams or individuals to bid for paid projects. Like the eBay model, a site reputation is crucial to securing projects. Presumably reputation-based online clearinghouses for project work will continue to expand."
