I recently heard about a experimental company called Cha Cha. You can become a Cha Cha guide and be paid to be a human search engine. Have you heard of this? If so how is it working for you?

I am a chacha guide, I started on Oct. 1st I've made $237 so far. It wasn't hard at first, now its getting very annoying to work. We have over 9000 Guides so think of how many people are competing against you for a search.

I wonderd about that. I thought if they get to many guides and not enough searches, what will happen. I am not sure if I want to try it or not. I probably will as soon as I get highspeed internet.

I did a search and it was kinda fun. I like being able to tell her exactly what I was looking for.

Thanks for telling us about this. Sounds interesting. I'm not sure I'd qualify because I only have a dial up connection. (No DSL out in the country here, lol) I couldn't find any information on what they actually pay. Still, I think I'll check it out too!

I heard they pay from $5 - $10 an hour. But I also heard that with all the software gliches it ends up being $3-$5 an hour. I don't have highspeed internet either. I am looking into satellite or wireless internet.

I think you have to have an invite to become a guide. You could ask at www.wahm.com in the Telecommuting Moms folder for an invite.

I've been a chacha guide for a couple of weeks now. It's a great way to earn some money, but since it is still in the experimental stages there are a lot of system errors some days.

I'm a guide and love it for the most part. It is fun and easy to learn. Every one should go to chacha.com and do a search with a guide. it is free for you to use. So why not give it a try?

Sure, that's what the "away" button is for. Rarely will a search last 20 minutes. The payoff cuts off at that time anyway. I am on there all stinkin day but I will have 4 other windows open blogging and shopping, checking emails and chatting. You can put in as muchor as little time as you wish :-)

Do you mind if I ask you - how much time do you put in on a daily basis? Can you do one search and then stop for a while if you need to? I'm asking since I have 2 kids and run a home daycare during the day. Thanks!

I heard they pay $5-$10 an hour. Not sure it works exactly. It's not exactly a high paying job but it is a paying job. And you can work from home.

Its really $5/hour. When you hit the last level that is when its $10/hour. $5/hour is actually very little but I rather do this then work for someone outside for $10/hour. When I work, I am watching tv shows, anime, eating, chatting online, doing autosurf and etc. You can't do that for outside jobs. You do it when you want to. 100% flexible.

You sign up with an Indiana based internet bank, and once they verify your information you get a debit card in the mail. Once you get your debit card you can go to "pay me now" and get the money you have earned on your card whenever you want it.

I've been working with cha cha for a little under a week now and it's very much worth it! It's a little overwhelming at first, just as any new endeavor and it's a new experimental site so it has a few glitches that it's working out, but once you get the hang of it, it's actually fun and makes me money.

You are better off chanelling your efforts elsewhere, because they won't be able to pay the members.

You make more money on chacha than mylot. You need an invite to get in, though
