Get your High Fidelity on and create top five lists at MakeFive. Top five lists are available for voting on everything from the best TV shows to the best logos to top celebrity milfs to what you would do with a lottery win. The topics are endless, and if you don’t see the one you’re looking for, you can create it to share with the rest of the community. Once a list is created, other members of the site can vote for their top five, selecting from the ones you listed or adding new ones to the list if they don’t see their favorites. These votes are tallied and you can see an all time ranking of all of the category items that have been added. The list is updated immediately after you’ve voted so you don’t even have to refresh the page to see how you’ve influenced the ranking. For each action you perform on the site you gain points. You score points from voting, creating new list items, creating new lists, commenting, expanding your profile, adding content to the lists, and more. The top five point makers at the end of the month receive cool prizes like an iPod mini and more. If you start to trust the opinions of certain people on the site and want to keep updated on what they’ve voted for, you can add them as friends. If you enjoy being judgmental, now you can be rewarded for it by making lists at MakeFive.

"Geography is becoming less consequential. Although your 65 year old neighbor may be friendly, you may have little to share with her. On the other hand, there are people who you've never physically met, who share the same ideas as you.
This is what MakeFive is about: an easy to use venue that gets us all talking with one another and making new connections. Users create simple “top 5” lists for anything that they are interested in, and then share their selections with others. This proves a nice entry point to discussions and connecting with like-minds.
We believe our users to be from many walks of life. Here, you can find like-minds from around the corner, or around the world. Perhaps you'll share some thoughts on a good band, or maybe you'll debate politics. What MakeFive users get out of all of this is a little meaningful fun. We've like to see MakeFive as the 'thinking person's social network.'"

The site is incredibly easy to navigate through, and it’s nice to have lists updated automatically without ever having to refresh and being able to see other members’ lists without having to change pages. Having cool prizes encourages a lot of site participation, which is easy to do because there are a ton of interesting topics to browse through and vote on. You can learn a lot just from these lists, such as new songs to check out, various bars in your city, ways in which you can live your life more green, and more.

|
How are they making their profit besides the couple of ads on the side that gives them the money for these monthly prizes? Could they update the prize page or show what each ranked person wins?
