New Zealand desperately needs -something- good. For example, there's a student job search site (only for students) with around 2 pages full of awesome freelancer jobs (with good pay) yet I cannot sign up/get in contact with the submitters (because I'm not a student).

That's food for thought. I mentioned New Zealand, so perhaps you can find a locality where a Craigslist-type website would pay off well.

Could you tell me the name of the site? I've been out of New Zealand for awhile, but it would be interesting to see what's available.

http://sjs.co.nz -- when I was looking about a month ago, there was 37 jobs with an average time of 10 hours a week at $25 an hour. They were all sorts: coding eCommerce, website maintenance, Wordpress development etc.

(to search, type 'home' then find 'IT/Computer' in the classification drop down)

Generally I find it has a better range of casual/part-time or even full-time than Seek/TradeMe.
