Clear As Muck

Are you a budding musician with more work than you can handle? Struggling to juggle being a writer and performer as well as your own agent and promoter?

Or... Are you a professional musician looking for extra cash. Someone who has had the experience of the hard slog of booking a tour or promoting an album.

Derek Sivers (founder of the fantastic new music site CDBaby) has created a solution to help both parties. MuckWork connects virtual assistants to aspiring musicians to do their 'uncreative dirty work'. 

This is an amazing concept and I believe it benefits everyone involved. The site is still in it's beta-testing stages, but if the success of CDBaby is anything to go by (it became the largest seller of independent music on the web, with sales of $100M) I'm guessing Derek knows what he's talking about.
