Will Work for Praise: The Web's Free-Labor Economy - BusinessWeek
Description
This online business model has Americans happily toiling for attention on for-profit sites that don't pay them money

Here's how it works. Entrepreneurs like Gould build meeting places that provide visitors with tools to express themselves, mingle with friends and strangers, and establish their personal "brands." The result, when it works, is an outpouring of creativity. It has produced not only ThisNext, but also YouTube and even American Idol.
