I work on my two teaching jobs from 8pm to 12 midnight (I have a 3-hour break in the afternoon though). I very much appreciate holidays and weekends because they give me time to prepare lessons and check test papers. But instead of doing those tasks, I was always tempted to log on my computer and go to my facebook account. What for? Just to get comments and likes from friends that are are not helpful at all and all they can just say are 'hahaha' or 'LOL'. Plus, I get "attention-seeking" tags from friends using their pictures that we are not even there, hahah! I realized that Facebook is so addictive that we can't help but check who commented on our status and recently uploaded photos/videos. Actually it's a so-called "major distraction", as described by most of my students (even they can't make their homework LOL). It's somehow the reason why we procrastinate other important things. So, I was thinking why can't I just make money through facebook? Is it possible? In that way, I am not only killing my leisure time, but I also gain money. I need your help guys! Thanks!

Cloudcrowd pays! I have been paid 3x. BUT the tasks there are not easy. I only got paid for an easy job which is not frequently available. But you can try it, there are various jobs in there. SOme might be on the area of your work. You can find the link on my profile.

I got $50.00 from doing review edited documents and summarize recipes. Those jobs are not there anymore though. Anybody knows other sites similar to CC where you dont have to beg the employers to try you out and just pick a list of work and start working?

0.70 in 30 minutes . It was increments of 0.02 per job categorizing websites where it belongs (about 30 secs per job). The next day the job was gone (finished). BUT there are high paying jobs there! Those I can not do. Like editing website contents, translating french to english or german to english, english editor, grade written text. Those are the jobs that is always available.

Have you encountered the application cloud crowd in Facebook? you can make money from that application. All you have to do is performs task ennumerrated in their job lists and you will start to earn. Just be careful with the rules in each task to avoid committing too many mistakes that may damage your reputation as a solver in the program that may lead to the de-activation of your account there.
