7787, skills co-op.

been thinking about this for awhile. its prolly a separate post, but i'll put it here for now.

basically, i'm thinking about a barter system for svcs, or whatever.

case a) you have a non-profit or community oriented business that needs tech skills/svcs. you also have mad technical people unemployed right about now. in each community we should have a clearinghouse for bringing the two together.

that way, community gets benefit of technical skills, the svcs providers get to add ish to their resume and get to stay in practice, and, get some kind of in-kind 'payment'. fr'instance, advertising for their svcs in a community paper in exchange for helping design a network for them or some web page redesign.

ur thoughts?

peace & blessings,
