Free money

What business school student could argue with that, right? Sure, "There's no such thing as free money," you say. Perhaps, but a nifty new site called Agloco - short for A Global Community - provides the next best thing.

Almost everything you do on the Internet makes money for someone else. Nearly every time you view an ad, click an ad, search, buy something, download something, join a community, or post a story, picture, or video, some person or some company cashing in.

With Agloco, you download a small piece of software called a Viewbar which sits at the bottom of your desktop collecting information about the types of websites you visit. Then, it displays small advertisements related to what you're surfing. 90% of the ad revenue is then returned to Agloco Members.

I was very skeptical when I first read about this, but it's starting to generate a lot of buzz - and with good reason. It's a pretty neat concept. You win because you now get your share of cash for doing what you would normally do. Agloco wins by keeping a 10% cut of this revenue (like stars pay their agents). And the companies win, since they get your business. All you need to do is have the Viewbar up on your screen while browsing the Internet like normal.

Try it out. You have nothing to lose. The free service is brand new and pays its members based on their collective browsing activity, so the earlier you join the more money you can make.
