Make some cash with CrossLoop.

I could swear one of us blogged about CrossLoop in the past, but a quick search of the site didn't find the post. Care to help me out, Mike?

Anyway, CrossLoop is an amazingly easy to use remote help application. It's a free download from their web site.

After you and the person you're helping (or getting help from) have downloaded and installed it, the person asking for help invites the other by sending them their access code. The other person enters that code on their side and viola!, you can now see and even control the other person's desktop. It's a lot like the Windows remote desktop client, but much, much easier. With CrossLoop, you don't need to worry about opening a port on your router and all the headaches that come along with it. It just works.

Now they're offering a way to make money with it. Just set up a PayPal account, get listed on their web site as offering help, and people pay you to help them via the CrossLoop client.
