I have an idea for a freelancing site, but I don't want to repeat what's been tried. Eg. I noticed there was a YC company jobpic.com that's no longer around, what happened to it? What else has been tried?
There is no good freelancing site that caters to bigger companies for i.e. embedded development that requires (part-time) on-site work. The companies have a hard time finding good consultants, and vice versa. Many locally acting middle men make a lot of money from this possibly easy-to-solve communication problem.
