I've been looking at Guru after seeing mixed responses. I registered for the basic (free) account and will see how that goes. I think it allows bidding on 20 projects free; then I'll have to decide if it's worth going to the next level.

I've learned to steer clear of the listings with $0 Employer Stats..those were the two that nearly scammed me. Good luck!! __________________ Jána :daisy: www.virtually-supporting-you.com
