This process is called drop shipping.

Mechanical what?


Mechanical Turk is actually Amazon’s version of a crowdsourcing marketplace for micro-jobs, pretty much like Clickworker.

It may not be as rewarding as finding a gig on Fiverr, but it’s a quick way to earn money online.

46. Start a Podcast

Podcasts are a boon to busy people who have no time to read the newspaper or watch TV.
