Tell a joke, earn some pocket money

Updated

Looking for a way to replenish the pocket money tapped by the holidays? Each week Comic Wonder awards $50 to the best joke-teller. It's a new site, so the competition isn't too tough... yet!

Comic Wonder, which launched officially in December 2007, is the first competitive arena for joke-telling on the Internet. Jokes aren't just for fun though. They are an oral tradition that has been part of nearly every culture for thousands of years. Comic Wonder is the first online forum dedicated to promoting jokes in their original audio format. A written joke can't quite convey what the spoken word can, so the site's joke-tellers use the simple "call-out joke acquisition system." Visitors can easily tell and listen to jokes, and they can particpate in the action by voting, sharing, and commenting.
