    As mentioned you may want to check out TurkerView and TurkerViewJS. Most of us here use that as a (much) better alternative to TO. You may also want to review your scrapers and scripts since it seems like you haven't turked since the www days. The most commonly used (public) scripts are either the combo of HIT Forker and Panda Crazy or Kada's Mturk Suite extension for chrome.

    Sometime, maybe.

    There was an episode of Bones where someone had a some kind of Prion disease. They were unsure if the guy got it because he was eating people or if he was eating people because of the disease. I'm just curious, if it was because he was a cannibal first, if cooking the people could have prevented the disease.

    Trichinosis, salmonella. There's just all kind of illnesses which make me not like under cooked meat. If I were going to eat human flesh I would want it well cooked too. Unless I were eating it because I was a zombie, then I don't think I'd care anymore. I'm pretty sure being a zombie trumps all food borne illnesses.

    Have you seen the 100?

    They made people into jerky. Maybe that is more your style.

    Thankfully this is just delivering a finished product without the adjustments after the fact. The other guy will deal with the initial design and then I do the rest.

    Eh, jerky is a little tough and chewy for my taste although I do have a Slim Jim once in a blue moon.

    I would never in my life do webdesign. The market for that sounds god awful.

    I'm glad you're doing something you enjoy though.

    Once you get out of the doldrums of people who don't understand good design is worth more than a couple bucks on a crowd work platform it's a super lucrative market.

    Yeah, true. I guess I just don't even like the idea of being in the design process forever. I work in IT, mostly desktop support. Really interested in being a System Administrator.

    IT is a broad field, there's something for everyone, man!

    Now make me a myspace profile.
