Thanks, Xeep.net. We’re slowly getting the word out about this strange “new” world of getting paid for your content. Nobody will call this stuff an overnight success. I’m about 500 posts into this stuff, and I’m amazed that it’s still the best-kept secret on the web.
You can actually make MONEY if you have good content!?
Here are 34 posts, websites and videos about online video… curated kindly by Christopher Mingryan. Can someone summarize them in the comments below please? I’m too lazy to read.
