http://twitter.com/biggesthits Hi all, If you've often looked at the list of HITs and wondered whether anyone besides Hurricane Electric or StreetAdvisor ever posts HITs over $5, this is for you. I've put together a Twitter feed that's updated with links to some of the biggest HITs soon after they're posted to MTurk. Each tweet includes a link to the HIT, though chances are someone will have accepted it before you get there. Even so, sometimes people will accept a HIT, decide it's too hard or too much work, and return it, so you might get lucky! It's happened for me. If nothing else, it's interesting to see what pops up even when we miss it ourselves. Why only 'some' of the bigger HITs? Simple. HITs with bigger rewards get accepted so fast that I may never even see them.
Great work Ergo! I am very impressed with your innovative ideas! I will try to subscribe once I remember my twitter login details!
Don't particularly care about how many followers I have, but if WeFollow helps people find the feed then I'll give it a shot. Thanks for the tip!
I regret to announce that I have had to shut down @BiggestHITs, probably permanently. It's outgrown its current low-cost server, and I can't afford to pay for the upgrade necessary to keep it going. Thanks to everyone who followed.
Thanks to Techlist generously stepping in, @biggesthits is now back in operation! Due to the sad state of compensation on MTurk this month, the feed will now be tweeting HITs of $3 and above rather than the original $5.
