Work for Mechanical Turk
Heh. And I don't mean as just another Turker. Scouring the web for all news Mechanical Turk related, I came across this job listing at Career Builder. (Career Builder being the site it is, I couldn't easily tell how old the ad was. Maybe Barr or someone knows if the position has been filled?)
Anyway, here are the details:

Sure, I could do that
but i thought Career Builder was one of the top job sites. You'd think the least they could do was timestamp their listings.
(heh. as a sidenote, tho, i just like ragging on CB because they're owned by Gannett... long story... ;)
Thanks for commenting, tho!
