And I must say. It's actually really hard. I used to think that any idiot could just use google and answers the questions. But it's so complicated, and sometimes I get some serious stumpers. ._. I thoroughly enjoy the interface, it's really cool. Overall it's not a big money producer, but I can just take a question here and there as I chat on basil, which is really convenient. ChaCha is still hiring by the way. If you're interested in signing up. ChaCha!

My friend got hired as a ChaCha guide. He quit the first day because there were so many stupid questions to see how the guide would react. He said about 80%.

I will try it since I have some free time. Are there any catches to this? Like, must I pay in any way to do this?

[quote] ohnoezDx : How much do they pay? I might consider doing this. [/quote] The pay system has become rather complicated. It works on a point system. You get a certain amount of points per answer. And then at the end of the month you get a percentage of the money pool based on the amount of points you have. Obviously you're not going to make a killing. But if you're just surfing the web, why not answer a couple of questions and a make a little bit of cash.

Damn, if only I was 18. I've actually wanted to know what goes on behind the scenes there. :P

Any extra money for a college kid is good for me.

Eh... I could just pick up more hours at my job if I really wanted extra cash, even though it's definitely more to do.
