I made $2300 over the course of two months a few years back using Comission Junction through PPC arbitrage. I found the entire industry to be really spammy and full of scams (not so much CJ but ShareASale, AzoogleAds, Clickbank, etc)
1. Sign-up for CJ/Azoogle/etc
2. Digitalpoint.com for YAHOO/MSN/GOOGLE credit vouchers $200 in ads for $20.
3. PPC account (Google not reccomend for newbiews)
4. www.sherpastore.com/ to accquire matieral to read internet marketing case studies, understand landing pages, call to actions, etc.
5. html/css/design skills to create your own landing pages, crazyegg.com to understand user clicks.
Ultimatley its more work for less money than you would make at even a retail job.. but if you are serious I am sure you can come up with innovative ways to drive user to your links and maybe even sign-up for trials or products. I made the bulk of my earnings from Rhapsody sign-ups using obscure music genres on MSN. While the money seems okay -- you're likely to lose quite a bit while discovering a niche -- that is if this even works anymore -- I know google was starting their own affiliate network and i see information for arbitrage being advertised by gurus on CNBC at 3AM.
I noticed a bunch of people are using enom for email. I assume this is because of their hosted exchange. Does anyone have any experience with enom's standard hosted exchange and using it using mobile devices such as BB/iphone
The MacBook Pro line is solid, especially with the unibody construction. You also have the choice of running Windows and/or OSX. I converted after the Intel switch and haven't looked back.
I made 1K in a month with CJ/adCenter arbitrage about a year ago. But I felt pretty spammy, then I saw the Jason Calcinis speech at Affiliate Summit and thought he was on point in regards to adding value. I'm still trying to figure out that part. :)
It'd be nice to sign another two year contract for the subsidized price. I am interested to see the new componets and actual processor speed of the new device. I also want Nike+ so I may be willing to put down the additional money but I definitley don't want too.
LOL. I live in Northern Virginia and that craziness does not surprise me one bit!
One night on the way home from grabbing one drink I accidentally turned into a govt complex that was probably CIA or something. I figured I'd tell the guys at the gate I made the wrong turn and they'd let me leave. Low and behold I was held within the gates for 3 hours, subjected to a series of alcohol tests conducted by several feds who rolled up in unmarked black suburbans repeatedly asking me what I was doing there. At the end of all the huffing and puffing I passed every single test and was warned I got off easy as I was clearly intoxicated and next time things wouldn't go so smoothly. This was after I agreed to a voluntary search of my vehicle with hopes of just getting the hell out of there.

I've designed my solution from a student's financial perspective. If you can build ideas with software and are passionate about this subject drop me a line. Rails only thanks.
