The Economist Magazine

[genoa]

Statements like this iritate the fuck out of me:

Turkers, despite the fact that half of them have at least one degree, are willing to work for peanuts. (Their median wage is about $1.40 an hour.) Most, indeed, seem to regard the tasks they are set as more like a paying hobby than an actual job.

BULLSHIT! I hate that major articles say this shit. ITS NOT TRUE! Not in the US or Canada anyways. I want to smack the writer of this article.

Why don't you clean up the language a little and post a comment under the article at The Economist's site? It will be read by a wide audience and give a public plug for good requesters (as University of Cambridge). Be sure and mention Turker Nation. Maybe we can get more requesters coming here.

IMO
