The indigent, indebted and incredibly audacious are turning the World Wide Web into the World Wide beg. Cyberbegging sites now belong to everyone from an aspiring opera singer to a woman who can't imagine a world where "someone as talented as me was forced to work." And the clicks in all those cyberpails are adding up. One woman managed to dig herself out of $20,000 in credit card debt and parlay her site into a book deal. The moral of her story? It's amazing what you can net off the Net just by asking.
