In an effort to diversify and expand my freelance career I am starting to actually use my Associated Content account. I have a recipe currently being reviewed, and the following article is published exclusively there

 

The DTV Debate in Congress: Why Does the Government Care About My TV?

 

Feel free to check it out

I just left a comment on your article, for some reason it came out twice. Best of luck with your writing on Associated Content. It is a good site and there are some nice people there.

I just posted new content there today as well. I don't use my account very often either. I'll check yours out.

They keep bugging me to write for them but by the time I log in each day, nothing good is ever available. I guess I should invest more time on associated content but I just am too busy!

Very good.

A nice article.

Do they pay?
Gretchen Lee Bourquin Feb 17, 2009, 1:03pm EST
They do pay, not a lot but something. You submit content, either as exclusive to them (eligible for more money, but you can't repost), 1st right -- you can repost, but they get 1st dibs, or shared content. They make you an offer on what they will pay you for the article. I got $3.55 for the DTV thing, after that you get paid a fraction of a cent per view

Your article was great. I've often wondered why the government cares about my tv when there are so many more important things for them to worry about.

Very interesting article. I'm going to paste it to my Facebook, Vox and Live Journal accounts. Should stir up some conversation.
