    No you cannot - I have some amazon US vouchers and they say you can only use them on amazon.com Will probably have to sell them on the US ebay unless anyone knows a better idea..

    Thanks, I didn't think you could but wasn't 100% sure. May wait until I have $0.99 and see if it lets me download a music track through Amazon.com.

    Freeme, I hope you will take this as constructive criticism, but as someone who works as a copy-editor (basically proof-reading), I did notice several errors in your post. If you want to do this kind of work, you will need to have a very good grasp of grammar and an eye for mistakes (which you may well do, for all I know you're just a bit more relaxed in internet posting).

    And yes, I read this post very carefully to see if I'd made any errors! lol

    OK, Rob, I get the last one (shouldn't start a sentence with 'and'), but what's wrong with the first two bold highlights....?

    Is it because they've used a comma without a conjunctive afterwards?

  • Yes, there are lots of work that you can do from home. All you need to do is search for a reliable website providing works to freelancers. There are lots of them but only go for the reliable ones and you can bid on projects that matches your interest.

    I wonder if there any such sites allowing IT engineers to bid for jobs (or even allow PC engineers to push their services).
    Actually, I wonder if there is any room for a forum on here for those who are looking for people to undertake small jobs to advertise them.

    Has anyone used these?

    Most jobs these days are for freelancers, though there are rare jobs out there for internet workers but they ar efew and far between.
  • depends what you are looking to do. arise have call taking/order taking/ web based chat etc contract available - just depends on what you want to do. hours are flexible but you have to commit to 15 hrs per week, 5 must be at , but you can split them so 1hr sat 4 sun etc if that helps?
