Writing for Cell Phone Users; Is It Worth It?
at 11:00 am on Sunday, 10 May 2009
There are many new companies, which will spring up in the near future, which will send out instant messages to cell phone users, as Microsoft merges computers and cell phones. Great idea and much like the SmartMob technologies, which bring singles together for instant parties or patronage at restaurants.
Call it Smart Mobs go social if you will. It is the next evolutionary step in technology to the social networks on the Internet, like MySpace.com and such. One gentleman told me recently that there is a company who will pay you to put your 120 character messages online, as you can be an instant messaging writer? How about that, have a current event topic, news topic or such?
The content must be 120 characters max. You get paid 2 cents per character and it appears they have a 100 message per month limit on submissions. They own the content and reserve the rights to approve, deny, edit or modify the text. Maximum monthly income would be $240 per month.
Sounds interesting indeed and if you are a writer well maybe, just maybe you might make a little extra money writing articles that will alert your readers thru instant messaging and you get paid for the message that is sent out too? Who knows if this will take off or not, maybe so, maybe not, but you have to admit it is kind of intriguing is it not? Consider all this in 2006.
