Gigwalk Launches: Wanna Get Paid for Taking Pictures with Your iPhone?
In the 1990s, peer-to-peer networks were a revelation. They allowed people to pool together tiny parts of their computers, and those pooled together parts could do far more together than the average computer or connection could do on its own. It enabled everything from swapping pirated music to making cheap transcontinental calls via Skype.But what if you could do the same thing with tiny parts of people's day? Grab five to ten minutes here or there, at the right time and the right place, to complete a massive task no one person could do on his or her own. That's exactly what a new startup called Gigwalk is trying to do using the power of-- you guessed it-- the iPhone. You download the app, enter your PayPal information and get assigned entry level "gigs" or jobs that may take just a few minutes at a time, if you're in the right location.Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/t1cGMRQq9CU/
