Comments on: Where is a Mechanical Turk review? http://www.jurecuhalev.com/blog/2005/11/13/where-is-mechanical-turk-review/ In pursuit of The Idea Tue, 31 Jan 2012 11:07:20 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Michael Turk http://www.jurecuhalev.com/blog/2005/11/13/where-is-mechanical-turk-review/comment-page-1/#comment-14101 Michael Turk Thu, 01 May 2008 16:18:42 +0000 http://www.kiberpipa.org/~gandalf/blog/?p=10#comment-14101 If you look closer, there is quite some criticism of former MT "workers" on several blogs. Some of that was written by me. Besides "Crowdsourcing" in the MT fashion is the most disgusting evil breed of e-capitalism, MT is implemented in an aweful way. Just try it yourself - it's easy enough. Go and do expert work for 20 cents a week and see how much you're in love with the idea then, feel how lovely it is when you kill jobs of translators and so on, just to kill your boredom.
