Google is paying users $10 to go into stores, collect basic information (including hours of operation, preferred methods of payment), take a few pictures and let them know about Google Maps and Google AdWords. Users get $10 for every store that is verified. The program is part of Google Local Business Referrals

Wow...just wow...so i got a job while in college..haha

Yeah, stores love it when people walk in, start taking pictures and asking questions.

Seems ok to me:

What will I be doing as a representative?

As a Google Business Referral Representative, you'll visit local businesses to collect information (such as hours of operation, types of payment accepted, etc.) for Google Maps, and tell them about Google Maps and Google AdWords. You'll also take a few digital photos of the business that will appear on the Google Maps listing along with the business information. After the visit, you submit the business' info and photo(s) to Google through your Local Business Referrals Center, and we'll pay you up to $10 for each listing that is approved by Google and verified by the business.

All you need to be a successful Business Referral Representative is a passion for helping local businesses succeed, a love for the Internet (some knowledge of Google is great, too), and access to a computer and a digital camera.
You're not just walking in and taking candid shots, you're talking to the manager.

Ya really. I don't know any store other than the Apple store that allow pictures in store no matter the reason.

Gees, I could make a lot of money middle-managing said representatives in central London.

Such a shame I'm lazy.
