    I've done a couple, one took me about 9 minutes and the other about 11, but you can definitely do it faster. I second guess myself a lot, and it takes longer than it probably should because of that (might also be watching a Twitch stream at the same time...). They seem like decent filler, I'm gonna mess with them some more anyway. It is a lot of clicking though.

    Woah, 20k!? Dude's killing it...haha. Checking the db, I'm at 25k since the 1st of this month. I'm probably at <50 surveys for the month though.

    It is possible to do up to 26,600 hits in a week although I normally end up closer to 10k.

    Question about Pinterest. Yes, I'm logged in FYI. I rarely catch these and when I do its like every time it says the work is reserved for other workers. I haven't blown through the ones I've caught, I get to do one HIT once in a while but I see you guys making $$$. What gives?

    Yeah, I don't cap too often though. 10906 HITs this week. Not going to be getting much of anything done this weekend though, got adult stuff to do (i.e. Stranger Things, Halloween, Fixing Car).

    probably not possible but this would be cool for when someone mentions something you want to check out or a fix you want to try but you are busy and want to easily find the information later. I'm with you on the clutter bookmarks. Right now I just copy and paste stuff into google keeps so I can find it when I remember "oh someone was talking about that....".

    Is it just me, or is Amazon a bit shady for having humans solve CAPTCHAs at about 1/3 of the normal Internet rate for that kind of thing?

    Click the post number (lower-right, next to quote/reply).

    That will give you a URL that takes you specifically to that post.

    Then bookmark that page in your browser and name it whatever you want.

    Amazon payments withdrawal from last Sunday has still not gone through. Wonder if it's worth calling about again. :emoji_unamused:

    You could also short-circuit by one step by just clicking the [x minutes ago] part of [name], [x] minutes ago down in the lower-left and copying the link that it gives you.

    This is also usually how you get permalinks to posts on Facebook, other forums, etc.

    I avoided that mess but I think that I'll just straight up avoid doing transfers on the weekends. I normally just do M-F anyways

    Like @Totally Not , said, post number link, then Google Keep, Pocket, Evernote + Evernote Web Clipper (Probably overkill for this), MS Onenote.
    I have a Google Keep for mturk from a long time ago, but don't really use it anymore.

    Yeah, I don't really get the point of Google Keep for remembering URLs when Chrome syncs your bookmarks across devices by default.

    Whenever I've used tools like Google Keep, it has always fallen under "crap that gets written, but never read".
