Hear how Ian Ippolito, former founder of V-Worker (today known as Freelancer.com, and previously known as Rent-a-Coder) stumbled into Internet marketing success not once, but twice. Ian holds a degree in computer science and started out his career company-hopping and consulting before growing frustrated with the roadblocks to innovation and change in being an employee. He decided to launch Planet Source Code for coders and attracted upwards of 4 million new visitors a month before the dot com crash imploded his business.
