If you are knowledgeable (in any subject), you could earn some extra cash answering questions. There is a few different websites that 'connect' you with people needing answers. www.helpshare.com is one of those websites, askers set a price that they will pay for a correct answer, and you only 'answer' the ones you want to.

They have developed a Trust Algorithms™, this is a rating system that all users are subject too; you will have two different ratings, one for asking, and another one for answering. This is supposed to make the asker trust you and your answers, people can leave comments about an asker or answerer that will be visible in their profile, and not all answers are rewarded. The asker must approve of the answer first, this keeps the nonsense answers from begin rewarded. So do a good job, answer it as if you really want to know the answer yourself. Some askers will offer bonuses if their question is answered within a certain time frame and stuff like that. Answerers rate asker's; their rates are mainly to see if they have paid for answers before and stuff like that.

Registering for an account is free. The site is easily navigated, and not to many ads to distract you. For those of you that think they are encouraging kids to cheat on school projects, if you go to the site you will notice that most of the questions open and closed for answers are not even school related, most are for work project. I am sure there is the occasional high-schooler or college students on there buying answers, but at they have to pay for them here and they will get a better answer than if they would have asked on yahoo answers. After a question has closed, regardless if any answers were rewarded with payment or not, it is archived on the website. This gives helpshare.com another use as a "knowledge base".
