I already know about tons of PTC sites. I also know about Ch@Ch@, the human search engine. I'm looking for another online job in addition to Ch@Ch@ that doesn't require clicking, opening e-mails, or collecting extensive referral lists. So I'm interested, what other types of online jobs are out there? What else do you do to earn a few extra bucks on the side? If you do most of your online work here, what do you do to maximize your earnings?
Thanks for the replies in advance! :)

I write reviews for a few different online sites. I also write articles for Associated Content, and Helium, although Helium has not paid out very well for me, but I have not explored the market place there, which I heard can earn you some good money. I also do Gather.com which is a social networking site that gives you points and you can earn cash and gift points for posting articles, daily thoughts, pictures and videos. None of these sites get me a ton of money on their own, but combined I make around $200 a month.

Thank you for your suggestion! I'm not a good writer, as I told the previous commenter, so I'm not sure if I'd feel comfortable writing articles. Gather is a good idea, but I didn't find any information online about how much they pay. If it is a slow progression like mylot, I don't think I'd have the patience or time to balance two of these sites.
Thanks for the response and I will definitely check out those websites!

Lol, like all the others who have actually had something to contribute to the discussion so far, I do freelance writing online. I have actually complied a list of freelnace writing sites. If you are interested, you can view it here.

Thank you for the link! Do you do this as a second part-time job, or do you do freelance writing full-time? What kind of money can I make doing the same? I'm not asking for a number$$, that is none of my business. I just want to know if this is pocket change, or if it will significantly help with the bills.
Thank you!

I've heard about chacha before and it sounds interesting.
Do you know if it is available for non US residents. I live in Thailand but am actually a British expat, so could be paid or registered in any of those locations but the actual work being done from Thailand.
