Hey Nita,
I have not heard about it til now but, it does look kinda interesting and simple. Have you actually done any work or is it new to you too?
I did see where payments can take up to 30 days. Not that it's bad, but just seems long.
Anyone else?

I was on the requester side of this and I thought it was terrible. Received subpar work that was the opposite of what was requested and rejected of course. Someone thought it was unfair to have plagiarized work rejected and reported the rejection. That caused the site to automatically approve and pay all pending work. Not cool. I got them to reset the work to pending review, accepted and rejected as needed, and stopped using the site.

That is unfair for the requester. Who wants to pay for work that is clearly not according to their specifications....OP you might want to try mturk...I have been doing some work there off and on...It has been enough to put gas in the gas tank and get a bit of grocery between paychecks..mturk is run by amazon.

This looks interesting. It may not be bad to do if someone is doing call center work and is in between calls.
