| Added 8/7/08 To
boost the market share of their search engine, Microsoft is now running
a game that offers some very attractive prizes, including frequent
flyer miles. I now play these games more than any others, and
have gotten 5,000 Delta miles and 2,500 American miles as of this
writing. Posting of miles talks between 3 weeks and a month; if
you're good at word games it takes about 15 hours of game playing to
earn that. I play this instead of solitaire when I need a
break and this is now my primary online game. You need to use Internet
Explorer as well as Microsoft Vista (surprise, surprise . . .) to make
things work most quickly. |

| Rewardtv | Would
you write me so that I can refer you? |
| Don’t
bother with this unless you have a fast DSL connection; you’ll never
get a prize otherwise as the prizes are rewarded “first come
first serve” and are gone within seconds of going on offer. That said – I have managed
to get 4,000 AA miles out of them.
To win their shopping spree, be sure re-log in to RewardTV
about 10 minutes before the spree and hope for very fast mouse skills. |

is also primarily a shopping portal, see below, but has a daily trivia
game. It's fun, but
a very low value, although that will add up after a while. |

| Mypoints
is primarily a shopping portal, see
below, but runs seasonal games and promotional sweepstakes. I've never won anything
major
in them but the occasional five point win adds up over time. |

| This
is essentially a free Internet lotto.
It will take a lot of clicking, (update 6/29/08
especially as they've changed the lowest point win of 10 points to an
entry in a daily raffle.) but it's positively
addictive and you can get $25 gift certificates and also a gift
MasterCard for $25 and up. (Update 8/7/08 as of May, 2008 the company only offers raffle prizes. It's no longer worth my time.)
