I only have 1 side project, which is a utility for Windows laptops (a battery meter). It does about $1500 to $2k per month in sales.

An instructional DVD I made on SEO for wedding photographers and their websites ( http://photographyseo.com ). Recorded screen casts and mastered it in iDVD. Did a run of 1,000 at Discmakers for about $900. Sold out the initial run (@ $79 per disc) in under 2 years. Now we just one-off them or give them an option of viewing online.
