      <title>We can all use some help this time of year</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;This has to be one of the busiest times of the year (Of course, each season seems to bring on its own unique brand busyness). The kids will soon be out of school for a few weeks. The evenings are busy with parties and other social affairs. Time needs to be alotted for family and friends.&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;In the few spare moments during the last few weeks of this year, I intend to get our family organized, which, of course, means getting our family fully on board with &lt;a href-http://www.famundo.com&gt;Famundo&lt;/a&gt;. Several of the local groups that we belong to will also be rolling out their own &lt;a href=http://www.famundo.com/organizations&gt;Famundo&lt;/a&gt; sites, so we can subscribe to their calendars.&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;But there are many other things that we can use some extra help with. A new service has come to my attention, &lt;a href=http://www.getvendors.com/index.html&gt;GetVendors.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;blockquote&gt;
		&lt;p&gt;GetVendors.com, a web 2.0 start up has taken upon the challenge of relieving stress of household chores from busy lives of working moms (and dads, I might add).&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;/blockquote&gt;


GetVendors.com has three primary functional modules
	&lt;blockquote&gt;
		&lt;p&gt;1. Pro-match (an online service professional match making service)&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;/blockquote&gt;


	&lt;blockquote&gt;
		&lt;p&gt;2. Household Organizer (AJAX based interactive tools to manage household chores.&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;/blockquote&gt;


	&lt;blockquote&gt;
		&lt;p&gt;3. Community Groups that help users share everyday ideas with their trusted friends.
is the only service that gets you proposals from professionals who best match your needs &amp;#38; not the only ones who pay for leads&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;/blockquote&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;You can create your own groups, but one that looks very useful is one for &lt;a href=http://workingmom.getvendors.com/&gt;Working Moms&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;So if you need to find someone trim your trees or fix your computer, GetVendors.com is a good place to start.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
