I don't know if any of you actually do this.

But, amazon.com has a system called Mechanical Turk.

http://www.mturk.com

You do little things here and there for other turkers and they pay you anywhere from $0.01 to even $8.00+.
There is no referral system(that I know of) so I thought I would make a topic about it.
I have been doing it for about 4 days now and have about over $1.
You can add the funds to Amazon Gift Certificate or add it to your bank account.

BEWARE!  Keep track of your "income" .  It is tax liable.

Mods:If this belongs in advertisement then move it there.  I'm not really advertising my own site though.

Anything from answering a question, to writing a 300 word article, to finding information, to tracking down a url...Simple stuff.

They don't watch you.  You do jobs for other turkers.

What are you talking about?
I just do little things here and there that take like 1 minute to do.

I don't do it all damn day long.
Just little things when I am bored.

You get paid a minimum of $0.01 PER JOB COMPLETED.
Most of the ones I do are like $0.05 and take about a minute to do.
lol

8 minute = $.40

I'm just looking through some of the tasks, some of them say like $0.01 and time alloted "3 hours". >_>

That's how much time you have to complete it.  Not how long it takes.

Fair enough. Even so though, some tasks seem rather over the top given they are only paying you point whatever of a cent.

You'd make better money doing PTC sites like Neobux.

1.  It's not a scheme.
2.  I was not posting it to advertise it.  I get nothing out of it.  I was just letting others know. -.-

I stress again.  It's not a scheme.

PTC sites aren't all scams or schemes.

You just need PayPal or Alertpay.

scheme
   /skim/ Show Spelled Pronunciation [skeem] Show IPA Pronunciation
noun, verb, schemed, schem⋅ing.
–noun
1.    a plan, design, or program of action to be followed; project.

Schemes don't have to be underhanded. And the nature of it belongs in adverts, you even said yourself to move it if it belongs, which it does. Don't get mad.

Now we just have to develop some sort of algorithm that searches for job that are doable by a computer and then does them thus allowing you to kick back and relax while earning money :O

LOL...amazon figured out that someone would try that and every now and then, tosses a "type out the word you see in the picture" at you and won't let you do another thing until you enter the word.

Ah Mturk, i did it a lot when it first came out like a year or 2-3 ago. Back then they had the easy ones that you could do for 1 cent, people made bots and a lot of us were able to get pretty good money off of it. They were album covers, then moved onto some image thing, people broke it again, amazon then took them off.
