Hey, I just came across an article about freelance jobs where the demand is currently growing (supposedly).  Since none of these jobs are ones I'd ever heard or thought of (so presumably others may not have heard of them, either), and because I know there are people on my flist who may be interested in a side gig to bring in some extra money (or even a main gig to get them out of crappy jobs, if it works out), and because many of these freelance gigs use something fen tend to be very good at (i.e. writing or other artistic expression such as drawing and voice acting), I thought I would link to them.

Had you ever thought of writing product descriptions?  Neither had I, but as everything is sold online--and Google keeps changing their algorithms--many companies need new, enticing, accurate, google-bait descriptions of all their stuff, and need it changed with some regularity to keep up with Google.  Or voice acting!  Not for Hollywood movies, but for corporate cartoons and instructional vids.  Bet some podficcers out there would do an awesome job at that one.  Transcriptions?  Psh.  Fans do that all the time.  Doodle video creation (again for corporate cartoons and instructional vids), again, I know some fans who could knock it out of the park.

For those of you out there who need some cash, take a look!
