A great article from Forbes on the emerging freelance economy:

This is nothing new to freelancers and companies that use their services and have been taking advantage of the Internet to come together to create a new type of labor market for years. Thomas Friedman described just such a phenomenon emerging in 2005 in his book The World Is Flat.

This article helps break the news to the mainstream.
