We’ve finally launched the BETA version of our social outsourcing platform on www.SolvePoverty.com

You can still keep clicking freely and Euro .5 cents is donated every time (paid for by our sponsor UNISYS). You can now also outsource work to ICT ventures in developing communities. This is called social outsourcing.

What is Social Outsourcing?

We’ve gone out on a limb here with the launch of our latest product which is called PageOneRankings.com.au. Exactly like the name says we’re offering Guaranteed Page One Rankings on Google, Yahoo and MSN. We’re only offering this service for clients in Australia at present and the guarantee is to rank sites on the Australian versions of those search engines.

Having said that we will be offering this service internationally later this year as we do have Page One Rankings worldwide on several of our own sites for some extremely competitive keywords such as ‘Psychic’ and ‘Visas Australia’

We’ve just launched our commercial outsourcing firm’s website - www.OutsourcingTo.uS

We’ve also got our offices in Melbourne, Australia and Manila, Philippines fully operational and taking on new business rapidly so things are looking pretty good for the 08 year. We appreciate the feedback already. (and no that’s not Pierce Brosnan on our front page although we did ask him to do the photo shoot)

Here is Tim Ferris talking about the “Low-Information Diet” at the Web 2.0 Expo in San Francisco. Other keynoters included Eric Schmidt of Google and Jeff Bezos of Amazon. He was invited to speak after winning an audience vote at the “Ignite” competition a few nights earlier. The rules? The presentation had to be 5 minutes long, and you needed to have exactly 20 slides, which advanced automatically every 15 seconds. That explains why he’s speaking so quickly. Ferris is the author of the 4 hour work week.

Well several years on from the launch of the Philippines 1st Telecentre (GLOW) by our non profit OrphanIT.com we’re now ready to launch the first jobs platform for small businesses wanting to outsource to telecentres (like computer schools) in developing nations. The new platform will be hosted at www.SolvePoverty.com

I gave a presentation to about 200 people at the GK3 explaining Social Outsourcing and ways it can be better utilised. The PowerPoint on social outsourcing is here.

“Delegate Yourself” - I’ve been doing some research for a new eBook about ‘Serious Remote Working’ and came across Ryan Norbauer. He has written a tight and punchy 2 part piece on the 43folders blog about personal productivity and enlightened outsourcing after he read “The 4-Hour Workweek” by best selling author, Tim Ferriss.

He humorously explains his transformation, over several months, from being an obsessively micro-managing, perfectionist entrepreneur who reserved even the most miniscule tasks for himself, to someone who gets assistance on an almost daily basis from no fewer than fourteen outside sources, from New Delhi to New York.
