Invite friends

I recently signed up for yet another social networking account through one of our clients sub accounts called Yuwie.  In addition to all the standard features of making friends and sharing photos this one had a nice catch.  It pays you.  That’s right it pays you for being social, so I decided to try it out and note my thoughts at different points in the setup process.  It’s bit of a rant, but may hold some interesting observations on this up and coming social network.

To begin this adventure, I went to the site via an affiliate link (http://r.yuwie.com/anthonym ) and proceeded to watch a video giving a nice pitch on how you get paid to do social networking.  It was simply, but decently convincing (Can you really get paid for playing around on the Internet, Yes).  That one make me smile, even though statistically I’m unlikely to make very much money, but you never know, if I got popular enough (hence the draw).
