Any UK or Non-US equivalents to Mechanical Turk?

EndGame · 03-24-2010, 04:30 AM

I love the idea of mechanical Turk, and think the principle behind it rocks, but I am in the UK and thus not allowed to use it.

Are there any "foreigner friendly" similar services or alternatives out there?

Try Microworkers - work & earn or offer a micro job

Hi Rondo,

Thanks very much for that.

Have you ever used the service before, does it have an active memberbase?

I used microworkers and the tasks were done well, althought the commission that the site takes seemed to be quiet high to me.
