I am currently working for freelancer and I am having a good time. Writing is fun and I definitely love it. Seems cool as I applied as a General Writer, I have to write topics that others require. So, it is surely a good experience for me and good way to increase my skill and hope to find my niche in the near future.
of course, we have to be careful as some are scam. However, I believe that just by playing it safe, we should be just fine.
What do you think?

That's nice. One thing i realise from such freelancer jobs and writing jobs is that, employers might be users of Triond, Hubpages, Helium and wherever they can be. They are paying people to do their jobs for them, and they used your articles for them to their advantage, claiming it to be theirs. Other than that, i don't see why would there be people outsourcing article writings?

I think that being freelance does indeed have its plus points, but there are many other things that you have to consider as well. If your work dries up, you won't really have any money, whereas at least if you were working for an actual company there would be some work at all times there for you. I often worry about what I would do if the websites that I was working for lost their money, because if I lost the work from those I wouldn't have anywhere near enough money to pay for my bills or anything like that.
