let me know what you think:

an online service where members can request errands to be run/run errands for a small fee. it would be concentrated in one city as a beta test.

it would like a social networking site where "dispatchers" would list their area, the task and the amount they're paying for tha task to be done.
"Runners" would log on, check to see if the task is "doable"(i.e. in their area, price range,etc.) and sign on to do the task. There would be a check-in system to make sure the task gets done. once the task is confirmed done, the "runner" gets paid.

This idea is already in production with a beta due in may. any and all feedback is appreciated.
