Has anyone tried this program? I was looking at it and even signed up, but all the jobs pay such miniscule amounts. I was figuring out though, that if you did enough, you could really earn a decent sum of money. Any experiences with this?

It doesn't sound worth it to me! I wouldn't even bother for the small amounts of money! Thats just my opinion though :)

No, it isn´t worth it. Especially since I am starting my own business that has only been really up and running for a day and I am looking at earning $500 by the weekend! So I think I will leave the ten cents an hour to someone else. :)

I tried it even though I am an international members.It should look interesting in the beginning but as you try out the HITs,you realize that the rate they pay u is way beyond market price. Plus for international member,they won't pay u money.U only get Amazon gift certificate.But I must say their customer service is good.I wrote twice to them and they did answer professionally even though the answer is not favorable. So in the end I decided to dump the program.Just not worth my time in exchange for the certificate.
