You can earn a bit of money by being a ChaCha Guide http://chacha.com/

Hmm…although I just read this review from someone that tried it -

For those who haven’t heard yet, Chacha.com is the latest Web 2.0 experiment - a human powered search engine. The idea is simple, searchers (called InfoSeekers) can use a traditional style search or can search with a ‘trained’ human guide in a chatroom-like interface. The guide categorizes the query and finds relevant results which are sent directly to the InfoSeeker and Chacha’s database. Simple idea and honestly, I wouldn’t have given it a second glance if it weren’t for one fact, guides are paid $5 to $10 per search hour.

Never one to pass up the opportunity for quick and easy money I promptly applied to become a guide through a craigslist listing. With visions of money pouring in as I breezed through query after query I jumped in with both feet and hoped for the best. So far I’ve been disappointed.

There are a few major obstacles blocking this from being a viable cash cow. The first being that bit about “per search hour.” At first I didn’t realize this would be a problem but the reality is you can sit there for hours and only be paid for a handful of legitimate searches. Not only that, but to be chosen as the guide for the search you must click that “accept” button faster than the other guides out there, otherwise you’re left in the dust. Often times you don’t even have enough time to review the query’s topic before it’s taken by another guide. Oh, and nothing is more disappointing than hearing that alert go off, jumping up from what your doing to get the search first, and seeing something like “asdf” or “help me find naked girls.” Sigh. Decline.
