Hey Steemains

Its that time of the week again, where I go a bit of treasure hunting or dumpster diving you choose by the quality of the posts I find. 

So let's dive in and see what we can find this week, shall we? This is my 15th attempt in sniffing out good posts from smaller authors and I think I'm getting better at it, what do you think?

## Found a few hidden gems?

This week I managed to find some practical advice on how to use freelancers and a pretty entertaining sifi story
