My mum is on permanent disability and is mostly bed-ridden thanks to chronic back pain - anyway she wants to do something with her time and is looking into type-from-home kind of things. I found this site:
http://type-at-home-jobs.com/

...which supposedly "test-drives" some of the type from home websites to see if they're legit or not.

This is just something set up by such type from home people, right? My dodgy alarm is going off but I wanted a second opinion!

Also, if anyone knows of any of these programs that are actually legit, it would be much appreciated!

Thanks guys

Looks like an ad site to me, probably pay per click or commission. Certainly not an unbiased review...

Your mom will not be paid for typing at home. These are generally "spamming" jobs. You are paid according to how many people click the link or sign up at the site you're plugging. These also invariably require you to pay a fee for the job.
