This took under 8 mins., but I was going kind of slowly - some writing involved - For $0.50 - A survey about online travel forums Requester: Lydia Hanks
Oh, wish I hadn't risked that one. Took forever - there's a point where they tell you they want you to spend 10 minutes reading an article (which is so full of medical mumbo-jumbo that even I, who formerly worked in the medical field & can usually follow along with medical texts easily, didn't understand it!) and you're not supposed to do anything else during that 10 minutes, until the page automatically moves ahead - and then there was no code at the end of the survey. Grrrrr.
Just curious. What do you work on in the middle of the night if you are wide awake and really don't care about hitting 6.00 an hour, but just want to do some mindless batches that are really easy to get your numbers up and you won't have to worry about getting rejections. Any suggestions?
Oscar Smith's hits are still broken, unfortunately. I contacted him and he said he was aware of the issue and would appreciate if I tried again a while later. He did pull the hit down and put it back up shortly after that, but the issue is still there. He approved 4 of my jobs filling out the same card, for what its worth, but I don't feel comfortable exploiting the issue repeatedly.
Crowdflower. Pays in a day. If you find one that you can breeze through, its mindless and they don't reject. Worth it if you ar new and can bang them out.
