Who ever said engineers and poets don’t mix?
Enter Matt Romaine, an oDesk fan in Tokyo, with a 10-stanza ode to oDesk.

Here’s an excerpt:
Each 20 minutes, a screenshot appears,
of the desktop for the guy I just hired.
At the end of my day, I can view on a page,
the events of his day that transpired.But oDesk knows that there’s more to manage,
and throws some treats in the mix,
a vertical bar beside the photo,
counting all his mouse clicks!So props to oDesk for a wonderful service,
without which my project was hopeless.
Just know that you’ve got at least one fan in Japan,
“making geeks rich and famous�
Thanks Matt for the kind words. Not to nitpick, but oDesk Team captures a screenshot every 10 minutes (not 20).
More on how it works here. Newbies can see Team in action in our video tour, or they can explore the application in our demo.
