Alas spotted this post rather late @remlaps, but I did want to pass along that I was also on old Tsu... sadly, it had some serious problems in its last "format," not least of which was the minimum payout limit of $100 which only a handful of people actually had large enough followings to achieve. It'll be interesting to see how they plan to "re-spray" it.

The "User generated content for rewards" industry seems to have a troubled history, it seems. Ironically, the longest lived candidate was also the first to enter the ring: Epinions, in 1999. I remember well how insane it seemed to get paid 3 cents a page view, but back then page views were about as hard to find as rainbow unicorns. Dozens of community-based projects have followed... Themestream, WrittenByMe, Squidoo, Helium, Gather, Skyword... there was an actual Facebook-like social network (based in Brazil, as I recall); more recently there was monster flop Bubblews which cratered only months after securing major Wall Street VC funding. And then Tsu.
