(There may well be others here with similar links, such as takinover or Timsterino, so if anyone else has personal referral links I welcome them to post in this thread and for others to sign up under them instead of me. Share the good, as the beer commercial says.)
The first is called Winzy, where most of the prizes are points that are put toward sweepstakes at the end of each month. However, there are more substantial prizes, and I've won two $5 Amazon gift certificates. I need just two more friends to become a permanent member of the Winzy Fan Club, which has some extra benefits, including entry into a month-end drawing for an Amazon gift card whenever someone signs up. Here's my invitation link for Winzy:

The second is called Blingo. Admittedly this is not quite as great a search engine as it used to be, as they have switched from Google to a jumble of other search engines plus sponsored links. Still, I have won a couple of prizes from them -- a $150 gift card and a $25 Amazon -- and maybe you could, too. Here's my link:

The last is a newer search site called LuckySearch. You don't win prizes instantly on this site, but you do win points that you can exchange directly for prizes of your choice. You get free points for anyone who signs up under you and if you sign up 10 friends who themselves sign up 10 friends each, then you receive a prize worth about $250, such as a gift card, a camera, or an iPod. That would be a lot to ask of you guys, so I won't, but I would be delighted if anyone simply clicked on the following link and signed up:

In my experience, all of these links are spam-free, but I apologize in advance if I am wrong.
This is a totally shameless request, and I hope I'm not out of line with this, but I thought I'd ask anyway. No pressure -- I love all you guys regardless! But for anyone who would like to sign up, I hope you win some nice stuff for yourselves. Thanks for listening!
