Turking

Has anyone turked before? A mechanical turk is defined as:

"The name Mechanical Turk comes from "The Turk", a chess-playing automaton of the 18th century, which was made by Wolfgang von Kempelen. It toured Europe beating the likes of Napoleon Bonaparte and Benjamin Franklin. It was later revealed that this 'machine' was not an automaton at all but was in fact a chess master hidden in a special compartment controlling its operations."

What turking consists of today is a service that Amazon.com where turkers can do simple tasks that computers can not. I have work a couple of hours and have made about 10 bucks....
