An article for those "majority rule" HITs http://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2013/07/the-stupidity-of-the-crowd/278188/
This morning hasn't been too bad so far. I've made more in bonuses than actual hits though, so my projected looks like I've done nothing...
Title: Does this podcast play and open in iTunes? (Client OSSDBBB) Requester: Smartsheet.com Clients [A1197OGL0WOQ3G] (TO) Description: We want to know if the podcasts in our podcast directory are still working. Please go to the Podcast URL. Note: You will need iTunes installed to do this task and you will need Flash installed. 1. Podcast Plays: (Answer: Yes or No) When you are at the podcast page you will see up top below the podcast title a LISTEN TO PODCAST icon in the middle of the page (or a WATCH THIS PODCAST icon for video podcasts). Click that icon and see if the podcast plays in our podcast flash player (it will either play audio or load a video to play in our podcast video player). Make sure it is playing the correct podcast as sometimes our flash audio player is glitchy and loads the wrong audio to play (if that happens then close the player and try clicking the LISTEN TO PODCAST icon again). If it plays the podcast correctly enter in "Yes" and if it doesn't enter in "No". You can also enter in any notes regarding the podcast playing after you've entered in "Yes" or "No". 2. Opens in iTunes: (Answer: Yes, No, or N/A) On almost all of our podcast pages we are linking to iTunes as well to access the podcast. On the right side of the page there is "Subscribe to this:" box with an iTunes badge link. Click on that iTunes badge link. It should open up an iTunes preview page showing all the podcast episodes for this podcast. If it does show this then that means it is on iTunes and you can enter in "Yes". If when you click the link it opens iTunes (or if it prompts you to open iTunes click Launch Application) and then iTunes brings up a prompt something like this: Item Not Available The item you've requested is not currently available in the U.S. store. Then that means the podcast has been deleted from iTunes and is no longer available there. In that case enter in "No". If there is no link to iTunes on the page for this podcast then you can enter in "N/A". You can also enter in any notes regarding the podcast being on iTunes after you've entered in "Yes", "No", or "N/A".

I just returned a $1 hit bc my longtime crush drunk texted me from outside my house for a smoke break. I can't decide if this means my priorities are totally in order, or the exact opposite.
