I am always searching for easier ways to make money online. Opportunities that require very little work free up your time to be with your family and do other things in your life. Here are the new websites that I have found.

Amazon Mechanical Turk
This program gives software developers a way to interact with humans who can solve their problems that a computer cannot do. This is free to join.
Amazon will pay you to complete certain tasks. You have thousands of tasks to choose from. You are free to decide how much you make, and when you work. The first thing you have to do is to find a HIT. A HIT is a Human Intelligence Task. The type of tasks are really hard for computers to do, but easy for humans to figure out. Next, you have to simply choose that hit. Click on the Accept Hit button, and follow the instructions to complete the task. When you have completed it, press the submit button. Finally, you get paid when the person who created the hit approves of your submission. The money is placed into your Amazon account, where later on you can transfer it to your checking account. So what type of tasks are on Mechanical Turk? Well, one that I found was a transcript with an MP3 audio. They asked questions like if the audio matched the transcript, and so on. Another task that I found was someone was looking for short blog articles. This really is quite a cool website. Pay for hits from what I've seen range from one penny to a dollar.

Scoopt
This is a website where you can sell your photos, videos and blogs to the press. Members pictures are sold worldwide. It's a place where news and magazine editors come looking for photos. It's free to join and Scoopt pays you 40% of all sales. Some pictures are worth 100 to thousands of pounds.You can start uploading photos after you sign up. Don't bother sending them any star photos because they don't deal with paparazzi material. If you want to be a part of the biggest citizen journal agency in the world, follow the link after this article!
