One more way to make money online is to join online contests. Aside from the fact that they usually don’t cost anything to be able to join, some contests offer large prizes — just like this one I found today.
Content sharing website Associated Content is offering $5,000 top prize to the person who can submit any text, audio, or video content that is deemed an upcoming breakthrough.
The general theme is “What’s Next?” and the topic can be a person, a destination, an event, a technology, a trend, or a “how-to” — basically, any unique topic that might break through with people in a new way in the coming year.
