Working on ways to make money online…
I’ve been writing for Associated Content for about six months now. I get paid an average of $5 an article - sometimes more, sometimes less - and get bonus based on pageviews. Not a terribly bad gig, considering I can churn out an article in half an hour. I have made well over $100 for next to no work… my AC work pays for this site’s hosting plus my Starbucks habit. 
I should do more, but I’m not looking to make it my full-time job.
Thanks to a fellow AC content producer, I ran across something this week called CashCrate. It’s not a bad little program. You fill out surveys and get paid a buck or two for each one. I know it will greatly increase the amount of spam I get, so I created a secondary email address so I can easily filter stuff. I also know that I’ll probably get telemarketing calls (even tho we’re on the do not call list!) … so I’m using our “secondary” phone number that has a special ring. Caller ID will help me screen those out. So far, in about half an hour of active survey-filling-out, I’ve made twelve dollars. (which is actually better $ than I’m making on AC)
I’m probably going to stop there, to make sure I actually get a paycheck. Based on what the person who referred me said, CC is rather good about paying on-time and in-full. (I did the same thing with AC, by the way… wrote one article and made sure I’d get paid.)
I’ll post after I get paid with more thoughts.

HI!!
Thinkin’ bout y’all a lot. I spose you’re busy a lot. *hugs*
Anyway, money on-line, eh? I’m building a website using SiteSell. It’s kinda tough at start up, but I think I’m starting to get the hang of it.
Hope you all are doing really well. God bless. Track me down if ever you have time to chat.

Very cool! Tell me about SiteSell… sounds interesting!
We’re doing all right, save a sprained ankle yesterday. It’s hard to slow me down these days, but this sure has done it!
