Enlightened Outsourcing

Over at 43folders, Ryan Norbauer wrote a post on the recently popular topic of outsourcing your life. It’s a two part series, starting with the psychological factors that make people resistant to outsourcing their lives, then moving on to practical steps how to do it.
While I normally think of outsourcing as a mainly Indian phenomenon, I was surprised by how much of Ryan’s work he offloaded to the United States or the rest of the First World.
I’ve just started trying to outsource some of my more mundane tasks to GetFriday so I’m sure I’ll be referring back to these articles many times.
