Brotherly love.

Brotherly love. My brother introduced me to it as an interesting computer concept. Then I tried it and got hooked. I am currently studying biochemistry which consumes a lot of my time. I don’t have many large chunks of time that I can spend working a shift somewhere. But this takes my spare time and pays me for it. I love filling out the surveys, I like telling people my preferences. Additionally, they usually pay pretty well. One thing that annoys me are the HITs that have you dredge the internet looking for data on specific people. I think that a business’ data should be accessible, but someone’s personal data should be private. Or HITs that have time limits that are too short so that they expire before you are finished, I think there should be a 5 or 10 minute minimum for HITs. I also like HITs that deal with language and grammar and such. Oh, and images, tagging, and comparing images is fun. I tried some dictation HITs, but those can be difficult and take a long time. AMT can be a bit rough in places, with HITs that don’t submit or they tell you that you already did that HIT, yet they still display everything, even HITs that you can’t accept. But overall it is a lot of fun. There is something that is very satisfying, being able to use your human abilities to help someone else out. I’ve already used some of my earnings to buy a book that I wouldn’t have considered buying if I didn’t have some extra money for spending.
