alexpgpThe (recently patented) Turk of Amazon's has a great deal of potential - maybe - but if you take a look at the "hits" being offered, more often than not they are exploitative to the n-th degree.
One guy right now is looking for short blog articles, 3-4 paragraphs long, on software and technology, for which he'll pay 50 cents. (And that's pretty good - nay, I'll say exhoribitantly generous - by Turk standards.) Assuming the final product is 100 words long, that's a whole half a cent a word!
Ye gods.
Cheers...
