Invest! Or rather, buy bitcoins with USD and invest them in one of the top companies under the securities section of this subforum. All the major ones offer dividends, meaning they will pay you a certain amount of bitcoins for simply buying and holding shares.

There are some sites where you can earn bitcoins from visiting some websites, reading some captchas, answering some polls, etc.
But it is very very very slow !

Also, there is a thread here in the newbies section listing similar types of sites.

I found BitInstant pretty easy.

You could get some from faucets, but that's not really a practical method because they mostly pay very small amounts, like a fraction of a microbtc.

Just understand that if you choose to sell a good or service, you'll likely need to use Escrow until you build some reputation in the community.
