looks like a cool site.. but i am not sure about the validity.. are you sure they pay you at the end of the month.. ? earning $10 in just a few days is quite amazing.. in mylot i have to spend a whole month to earn the same amount of money.. however i am planning to signup in this site and let you know the details future..

To be fair, I was able to make extra money because I have an Ipod. But yes, a very valid site. It is run by Amazon. They will pay you. The average I have seen is about $3 an hour. So it is possible to make some money, it will just take a few hours to accomplish :-)

I heard about it but didn't hear any specifics. How does it work?

Basically you complete micro-tasks for other individuals in exchange for a few cents. I did the math and if you work steady at it you can bring in a whole $3 an hour. Not very much (practically nothing lol) but if youre broke and needing to make a few bucks more... it can help. Especially if you are already online doing other pay as you go things like neobux or mylot or clixsense or blogging etc... There are some tasks that pay more if you have a fancy item like a droid or ipod/iphone, but usually its anywhere from .01 to .50 for the tasks that arnt rip-offs (do the survey, subscribe your phone number to a texting system and ill give you 2.00 in exchange for your 9.99 fees lol) The ipod/Droid tasks (download, test and review our free app) pay $1-$2 from what Ive seen.

Greetings. I have been using amazon mturk for years now. I don't do a whole lot because I get bored easily and play allot of games online that also make me money. They have paid me very well however for the amount of time that I have spent. If you have any questions about Mturk or any other sites I use. Feel free to send me a message. I will be be happy to respond.

Yeah I am a member of amazon mturk and very much happy with it. Like you , i have made $12 within 5-6 days. Since i am not from india, i cannot withdraw the money but only convert it to amazon gift card. I realy like the site and the hits are pretty easy and very less spammers in that site.

The mechanical turk's been going for several years. I've checked it out a few times, but never found anything I wanted to spend my time on. Unless the pay is better than it used to be, it's too much time spent for too little money. But it's legitimate, and some people do make fairly good money from it.
