#2: Lyft
This works like a taxi cab. It's an app where you can input your location and a regular driver (non-taxi) will come and pick you up. When you reach your destination the app will tell you how much they think you should pay the driver. This is outstanding because we know how much cabs sucks and it allows for people to make extra money on their free time. Furthermore, you get to meet amazing people and ride around in cool looking cars like this one.
#3: Bitcoins
Virtual currency. The way it's bought, sold, and so on is so complicated so I won't explain it. However, it has been known to be worth almost $1000 USD and it's only getting more popular. Their are now many other virtual currencies such ate litecoins.

This one is a little different than Mucnhery. Lets say you're about to cook some curry. You would say how much you're going to cook then put it online. Members can then reserve a portion of that curry and have it delivered to them. Members can also request specific foods and a cook to make it for them. No money is exchanged, it goes by a point system.
