01/22 - Showdown Sunday!

8 minutes

 

Agreed, I've also noticed you being a lot more positive lately as well. It's nice to be able to take the time you need for your mind when you work from home.

 

Yet another weekend day where I had to do chores between 8 and 10. Scraped up 33 Zs.

This was lighter than my first week here, but I also had two days of business travel mixed in, and my actual job is starting our busy season, so I expect my numbers will be about the same for the coming months. Approaching 700 approved, though, so maybe next week I'll be at the 1k threshold.

The following is a summary of activity for your Mechanical Turk account for the week ending Jan 21, 2017.

Your HIT activity for this week:
- Number of HITs submitted: 396

- Number of HITs approved: 298
- Number of HITs rejected: 2
- Bonus reward earned: $2.64

Hope everyone had a great week!

 

If I do nothing else today, sometime early tomorrow I'll pass 10k approved. For whatever that's worth.

Looks like you can do 100? Easy but may be a bit slow

 

Speaking of pickfu, looks like their marketing worked lol: DuckDuckGo Hits Milestone 14 Million Searches in a Single Day

 

They *almost* used the one I liked... I liked this, but with the blue background.

 

Hm.. So the forum now grabs the title of any links posted w/o context and tags it on there.. thoughts on leaving the link out? I might add it as a Title attribute so you can hover the link to see where it goes.. but I think the text is way too long the way it currently is

 

I'll edit it so it looks a little prettier

 

I was going to say, it def does get too long with title and URL.

 

I miss the Omer Levys

 

I personally hyperlink text often on forums, which I think does the same thing you're describing but better as it allows the user to control what the text says that the link is attached to.
However, if you want to have an automated system in place like that, I think it might be best to remove the url text and just have the Title. So if someone posts a url it replaces the url text with the Title text. Might make some people go "wtf haxx this isn't what I typed" though.

 

Did you make a ton off those?
