There are hundreds of websites that claim you can win cash or prizes by signing up and using their website. Sadly, most of these are scams but there are a couple out there that are legitimate. I have investigated many of these websites and tried them out personally, with many failures. The one that sticks out the most, for me and many other people, is beezag.com.

I was an active member of a few musical forums and started to add affiliate links to my posts instead of simple ones, so they can be profitable.

Nicholas Entertainment Group (NEG) is a Polish independent game publisher that recently got their hands dirty with development.

That's some stiff competition for small company, especially since it's a $35 debut game.
