    If any of you have done at least 100 hits (or close to 100) for Steve Schnieder he's looking for a few people to help him, he's paying $10 an hr. See his requester thread for the details.

    I can find about 5% of the sites in the 10-20 results. Those sites are new and they just don't have enough seo page rank to beat the directories.

    I keep a Google Docs Spreadsheet with the headings: Date, Requester, HIT Title, Compensation. At the end of the day I just copy and paste all of the HITs I've completed into the spreadsheet.

    This allows me to quickly search my spreadsheet (Ctrl+F) for something I've already done. I keep a mental note of the requesters I've worked for during the day before I've inputted the day's data into my spreadsheet. If I'm unsure about something that's not in my spreadsheet, I only have to check Today's HITs to see if I've done it or not, which is also easily searched with Ctrl+F.

    There is also MTurk HIT DataBase, but I've explained why this may be a bad choice in the past. In the event that Amazon updates MTurk's website, and the author of that script does not keep providing updates, your script and your previous HIT data may be lost.

    I would personally use that script if I felt more comfortable with javascript (the language used to write it), so that if the above happened, I could update it myself... that's just not the case, though.

    If you want more help with setting up a spreadsheet on Google Docs (now Google Drive), feel free to shoot me a PM. I'm always happy to help. :)

    i go to the status page for the previous day and copy each table of hits that i did, and paste them into an excel sheet, for each page of hits for that day. i skip batch hits since those are repeatable and would make this take too much time. it helps to turn off turkopticon first to keep the spreadsheet neat, otherwise the arrows get pasted in and the spreadsheet formatting gets a bit unsightly (for OCD people like myself, anyway). then whenever i have a question of whether i did a hit before, i just open the spreadsheet, ctrl+f, and i get the answer in seconds. i also have a date column, which helps. this whole process usually takes about two or three minutes, if i'm up after the amazon 'day' is over, i'll do the previous day's hits then, or whenever i have a free moment the next day.

    There is a script that keeps track of your HITs done and can automatically export to a spreadsheet... There is a newer version of this I believe - but it is mentioned on the script page... You can find all the most popular scripts right here in the mTurk Forum Resources section.

    Extended HIT Search: This script allows you to search through HITs you have previously done, on specific days. If you've ever felt the anxiety of wondering whether or not you had done a reposted HIT before, this is a script you certainly need.

    Hope this helps...
