Noting Amy's question about alternatives to paypal...
AOL founder Steve Case's latest venture is a competitor to Paypal
called Revolution Money Exchange. And just as Paypal did at first,
they are paying people to join--a $25 incentive. I joined last night
and today when I signed in the money was in my account.
If you'd like to be sent an invitation, send me a private email with
the subject line "Revolution Invite, Please" (don't get creative with
your subject lines as I may not spot it easily).
Disclosure: the first 50 who get an invite from me will earn me $10 each.
Case understands viral marketing: I'm sure AOL's growth had a lot to
do with sending starter disks around to the entire known universe.
While pay-to-be-viral is a model most of us can't afford, it's worth
looking at from a marketing theory POV.
