Thanks a lot!

I saw toptal mentioned in another comment, and their "Why 3%" page is quite unnerving. I don't work at Wharton, MIT, CERN, or Google, and I'm not a Top 100 Django or Rails contributor. Or is this just the 3% of the 3%, and the remaining 97% are more mortal?

Don't worry about that number. If you have ever passed a typical technical interview then I believe you can also get into Toptal.

Thanks, I'll take a closer look into those freelancer networks you mentioned, it looks quite interesting.
