I did a few of these HITS on mturk and I was wondering, why can't I copy and paste the keywords that I'm searching? I mean it would make sense to be able to copy and paste the keywords, after all the requester wants you to copy and paste the url for them, so why not the keywords too? It's like the requester(or amazon)want you to waste valuable time typing in the keywords, instead of being able to quickly copy and paste them into google and move on to the next HITS. This is so frustrating to me. Is anyone else having this problem or is it something wrong on my end. Also, if it is mandatory for everyone to type each keyword into google, is there any software out there we can use that will help? I mean, if I could copy and paste each set of keywords, I could finish each HITS in like a minute or 2, instead of 5 to 6 minutes. Someone please help. This problem really irritates me every time I do these HITS, cause I could be making a lot more money if I could just simply copy and paste the keywords.
I have never been able to copy and paste the keywords. I type pretty fast though and I can get this hit done in under 2 minutes. I just wish they would allow us to do more rather than capping us at a certain amount, which seems to vary every time. I'm not sure if there is software that would allow you to copy and paste the keyword or not. Someone more technologically advanced will come along and let you know if there is I'm sure. I find the easiest way to do these hits is to have my windows side by side. I've never had a problem with it taking too long...just from my experience though. Others may have the same problem you do. I hope you can find a way to quicken these HITS up for yourself though...
I love these HITs but they are capped by how many you can do. I emailed CS about it but they said their client set the cap. Every few days it seems I can do a few more. I can get them done in less than 2 mins now.
