As I’ve said before, making money online is a tough game. In an earlier article, I mentioned Turkopticon as a good resource for workers on Amazon Mechanical Turk (Mturk). They provide an extensive Requester reviews submitted by workers. These reviews are invaluable as you select you should work for to protect yourself from getting scammed or rejected.
Well, the Turkopticon people have taken this review approach to the next level and now have an downloadable extension that works directly with your browser while you are on the Mturk website. It’s added a pull-down menu to the AMT HITs listings that allows you to see Requester ratings from other providers. It also provides a link back to the Turkopticon database of Requesters.
This is pretty slick. So, you can now seamlessly cruise HITs on Mturk and see who to work for and who to avoid. This is a must for the discriminating Mturk provider. You’d be a fool not to use it.
Technical Note: This extension only works witgh Firefox 3.0 and above and also on Chrome.
