I've been doing this for a short while now, and mostly only select a few easy and numerous "HITS" to get paid for. It doesn't make much, but if you find good HITS you can make a dollar in about 30 minutes pretty easily.
basically, its a service that you get paid for completing simple tasks that a computer can't do. You are the "artificial artificial intelligence"
Anyone got any advice on how to earn more or stories/warnigns?

You do stuff like ranking or describing webpages, or labelling stuff, or answering qeustions, or writing reviews, etc, etc.

I'd never heard of it before but I looked around the site a bit and it sounds pretty cool. Thanks for mentioning it.
Looks kinda like Mylot except you do a lot of different tasks besides writing and answering questions. Have you gotten paid yet, and is there any minimum payout?

I don't think there is a minimum payout, and it lets you check out in either an Amazon gift card or it will just route it to a bank account. I think those are the only options.
