ODesk allows folks to solicit programmers to do snippets of work. Truly a "world is flat" type of service, great for folks with extra time on their hands, college kids, etc. I would have loved this in college, knock out a little programing project for a $100 here and there. Also really lets developing countries get into the game, some Chinese or Indian students are much more likely to take down one of these sorts of projects than an American student, on average, I imagine. but what a way to perfect your programing skills and make some extra cash.
A job I clicked though was offering $100 to integrate some simple code to bring a Malaysian web site online, add some style, etc. Probably a 5-10 hour job done solidly, faster if you have much experience.
