Spy Media is an interesting site which mashing up poparatizi and web 2.0.

“Spy Media offers professional and amateur photographers two great ways to get paid for your photos and photography services. Our Spy Bounty service is an excellent source to find photo assignments that are relevant to your location, talent, and availability.”

How far does this kind of model go? Would we offer the same sort of thing for news stories? “I have $20 for coverage of the Solon little league game, $35 with pictures.” Does this work in the future?
