We need a jobs/skills forum so we can form economic alliances among Dems

We should all post what we do professionally and build associations between each other. I, for example, am a Japanese translator running a translation company. Would that be of help to anyone? I don't know. But I DO know that we need to support each other and stop giving our money to the other side. I know you said previously you had considered this for a long time. Well I think now is the time.

3. Cool. Post this in the admin forum. We are already asking
for a thread or forum about shopping. This would be great to add to it!

4. I strongly agree.
Programmer here. Currently MS/web oriented but trying to get my behind over to Linux.

I also think we should include location info for those professions that are more localized. I can program for anyone anywhere but a house contractor need to be in your town.

9. Database-driven website programmer
Basically, giving websites the functionality that Democratic Underground has.

More or less fluent in Spanish.

Oh, and I twist balloons and do magic on he side. That will come in handy when the revolution comes. :)
