Topcoder (https://www.topcoder.com/) also has a lot of small, and often
very simple projects listed (some as simple as 'change all of the buttons
in my UI from red to green'). For me it's interesting to see what things
companies are interested in, and what they're interested in paying (and
thinking about what that means for our profession...)

It is a great way to exercise skill in other languages, and for some
projects you get participation points (and $$) even if you don't win.
