I don't have any personal experience on oDesk yet but there's one hubber here - Sufidreamer, who has an experience in oDesk. He even wrote a hub about it. You can visit him in his hubpage and read the hub.
Hope this helps.
I've had experience with Elance and Guru and so on. Looked at all the oDesk jobs and found them to be too low paid with intense competition compared to Elance and Guru, so I think you should check out these two if you want more money. The interfaces are very similar.
Yep, I use it and find it to be VERY helpful. I like the way their interface works and I like the way it tracks workers so you know if somebody is a lamer.
I don't have any personal experience with oDesk but I have heard a lot about them and its all positive.
ODesk is the best legitimate online job site available nowadays. Not to mention the fact that they offer guaranteed payment for hourly rate jobs.
I've been working at oDesk fulltime for a year now. So far so good... I'm earning more than what I earned from my office job. :) I'm earning at least $300 per week and I know a lot of people who earn more than what I do.
You also can visit my hub or my blog below for tips on how to get started at oDesk. :).
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
