Freesourcing


Wikispaces

Service: Free Wiki
Website: http://www.wikispaces.com/
Freesource Notes: Wikispaces lets anyone create their own wiki. The product is incredibly intuitive and full of useful features. The free version of Wikispaces requires that your wiki is public, which means no sensitive content, but this is still a great resource for collaboration, content sharing/storing, and organizing information. For free, you can have up to 2GB of storage, control who can edit your page, and have access lots of other useful management tools. The paid versions remove advertisements, let you create a custom domain, but privacy comes at their largest subscription service, so this is makes an unlikely intranet solution.

oDesk

Service: A Marketplace for Online Workteams, Freelancers, and Jobs

Freesource Notes: oDesk allows employers (“buyers”) to create online workteams coordinated and paid through the company’s proprietary software and website. Prospective employers can post jobs for free, and freelance workers (“providers”) may create profiles and bid on jobs, also for free. The company puts potential providers through “a rigorous screening.” The company collects 10 percent of the payment. Payments are made through oDesk, which handles many bookkeeping tasks for the transaction.
