Name me a few things I can outsource to a Virtual Assistant (also need advices)

Since time is gold/$$$ for many of us, I thought I'd bring this up for discussion. I also understand that there are many reliable virtual assistants (many >$8/hr) over at odesk or elance but was wondering if there are other sites (less emphasis on coding and development) out there that match VA's with would-be outsourcers.

Found this article which got me wondering:

I put in red my concerns and green those activities that look promising to me

Bookkeeping (privacy and confidentiality issues)
Online Research (looks promising depending on VA's analytical and reading skills)
Database entries (privacy and confidentiality issues)
Data presentations (privacy and confidentiality issues)
Managing email (privacy and confidentiality issues)
Social tasks (interesting when writing out to customers/clients but obviously personal touches will be more appreciated)
Travel Research (need to be pointed to the right forums and gain expertise to make it worthwhile)
Scheduling
Industry knowledge prep (similar to online research)

This is one good example of value added VA work:
Chasing business: Prioritizing potential business opportunities can be challenging, but virtual assistants can help with the process. When deciding what to sell on eBay, for example, O'Brien asks his virtual assistant to look around for products that can be profitable to resell. "I give them quite a few websites to visit, and they take it from there," he says. "They look for clearance items and other types of products."
