Sometimes I over look the obvious. I'm always looking for good people to help me with web projects: developers, designers, Flash experts, writers... I find some by word-of-mouth, but most by using the web.  Franki Durbin, a designer friend, turned me onto to Creative Hot List the other day when I was looking for a Flash animator. It's a good resource for finding freelance talent and folks between gigs, and since it's run by Communication Arts, the design community is well aware of it.
