Due to the international nature of development these days, and the
fact that (obviously) programmers and designers are already web
liteterate, payment in IG is a natural for development freelancers.
In fact, you could say that historically (putting aside like "GSR
employees"), programming and design freelancers were the "first group
to popularly adopt IG as a payment method"
If you mean you're thinking of STARTING something like guru.com or
elance.com, for the IG community, that would be a waste of time at
this stage.
It would cost you say 50 grand to set it all up, and you would get no
more than 2 or 3 listings a year.
Once the IG economy is 100x larger than it is now, it might be a good idea.
(A better solution for now would be, Jim Davidson could just add a
"freelance development" category on his goldbarter site. The two or
three listings a year that would come up could be handled nicely
there)
{Note that all the sites like guru.com etc., have largely failed
anyway. I think guru.com in particular has given up and become more
of a conventional employment agency with screening etc.}
