A New Technology For Bloggers

A new technology, at any rate, to earn some extra money on the side.

In this case, the well-groomed folks at Blogvertise will pay you to write short pieces about products that they suggest to you.

Each piece is about 75 words long, you don't have to advertise the product, just talk about it (just as I'm telling you about Blogvertise), and you only talk about the products you want to. (In other words, if you are asked to write about Coca Cola, but your loyalty to Pepsi Cola prevents you from doing so in good conscience, you can turn down the assignment.)

What do the folks at Blogvertise pay? From $4-25 a piece, although you're most likely to fall into the $5-15 category. So for 10 pieces, you'd make $100-150. To my mind, an intriguing proposition.
