In my own words -

Well, not the killer one exactly but this good start up website is enough to earn good chunk of money to take your GFs to 5 star dinner a week and to have parties with friends.

“The idea of the www.ineedthingsdone.com is to allow users to post jobs with a set price and try and connect them with other people who are willing to do the job for that price, this helps out those who aren't as fortunate as others or are wanting to save money.”

What it does

Ineedthingsdone.com is a website that is specially set to help struggling people. If you are a person who is unemployed, or if you are studying, or you are living with your parents this is a good opportunity for find an online resource where you will have the chance to start earning some extra money.

The concept underlying this site is quite simple: people make posts looking for people in order to get something done. No matter if you are thinking about mowing lawns, or painting a house, as well as walking a dog or baking a children's birthday cake, this is the right site for you to find the right people to perform your tasks.

The difference between this service and others is the fact that you can set how much you can afford to pay for the job. People on social sites like Facebook and Twitter see these jobs and respond by offering their services for the amount on offer, or more. Job boards have never been done like this due to the fact that the job poster is the one who sets the price. That is actually what makes this service different.

Why it might be a killer

This will be an effective tool for people that need money.

Some questions

What is next? How does the site makes money?

Well, ping me up, if interested. Ciao!!

Jump d' Shark

Cover of "The Tipping Point: How Little T...Cover via Amazon




What happens when you "jump the shark" and your application goes from successful to completely unsuccessful and draggy poster...ooopps!! But why does this happens? Interested to dissect that exact issue? Lets talk about it then .....

A great analogy and statistical science for me at least. Point is like - A bolt of lightening. It’s absolutely obvious when you see it, but before you see it, a successful viral campaign seems to be as much about luck as anything else. Isn't it ? Na, Na, Na. Not at all guys.....

So, what IS changing the paradigm is Twitter and social Networks ? Ummm....lets say - only (say) 1 in 100 people spread the word… so way less than 1 on 1… but if those people all have over 100 followers, then the maths is on the right track - because the infection used to be passed on on person at a time. Now the infection rate is one to many.

So, friends waddya think that disease depends on whether you are just a carrier of the disease (you heard the message) or a super- infector, like the Typhoid Mart you mention. Malcolm Gladwell talks about this in his book - “Tipping Point” - calling thise super infectors “connectors” I think.

Well, lets bang up with hard hits now to sum it up ....mathematically:


V = L.P.E

i.e. L multiplied by P multiplied by E

P = No. of initial people

L = Loop OR talking/connecting intensity of people to their friends network around

E = "Efficiency of Connection" of that network to other network of friends or people around

V = Viral Marketing online/offline

So, you send the Orkut/Facebook request to your 5 close knit friends i.e. P

P send it to their 5 friends each. Total 5 into 5 = 25. Now those 25 to another 5 each = 125

E works as speed here i.e how fast all it happens through P

Got the poking fun guys ? Lemme know for more explanation. Lastly - I heard this on Twitter, Facebook and it will be on my own upcoming Global Trading Web site www.LogicalBuys.com

BOOM! BOOM!
