Too many tasks, not enough time? There’s an app for that...

It’s called Task Rabbit and it’s in most of our big cities and spreading fast. Featured as “The Next Big Thing in Tech” in the Wall Street Journal, it lets you post the tasks you need to get done, with the price you’re willing to pay. Fellow Task Rabbits in your neighborhood will have to jump on it quick to get the job. As soon as they accept, you’ll get a text alert and your task is underway.

Task Rabbits can handle any number of chores, from a coffee run to tax preparation, milking the cow, assembling your Ikea furniture or help with a big event. The task pros go through a rigorous application process, need to be friendly, reliable and have no criminal record. You can check them out at TaskRabbit.com.
