Today Blellow.com launched. Blellow is potentially a freelancers dream. The site has a Twitter-esk platform that brings together collective knowledge in the effort of figuring out tough problems. I truly believe Blellow can make a huge impact on how freelancers work if they find the right people; people who want to share all the tricks of their trade.
I found Blellow or Blellow found me through Twitter around a month ago. Since then I have been awaiting its launch. The big idea of Blellow is that it is a Twitter for freelancers. A Twitter-esk platform that has groups and asks the question "What are you working on?" If another users are asking for help and you can answer them they can give you Kudos. The user with the more Kudos gets ranked higher in a Yahoo answers sort of fashion. One of the draws is that users can post projects and jobs on a board. Making this the first interesting social network where freelancers and job seekers can come together with people seeking talent and collaborate. Just by using the beta version that launched to day I am impressed. They took their time with the site. Everything is smooth and the design is neat and easy to navigate. Only time can tell if Blellow will take off but I believe it is an honest investment of time and effort.
