Pros
-Avoid unless you're a prolific writer-these will just waste your time.-If you can write very quickly and think creatively, these might be fine.
Some of these are okay hourly, but they will end automatically if you don't write enough or fail the attention check, and that wrecks hourly.
-These used to be way better-this new version is 8-10 sentences and attention check.
-You might learn about something new and nerdy.
-I did 10 for science.
Cons
91% approval and going down.-Attention check. It can be buggy, and you don't know if you got it right.
-They added an auto screen-out if you don't enter enough information in the 2-3 sentence box or fail their poorly designed attention check. Apparently, hyphens and spaces are letters now.
It's a bad feeling, being screened out after writing 10 sentences, and being told they are still too short. The HIT just ends abruptly, erasing all your work.

Pros
- Take three (total) screenshots 35 minutes apart, and upload them to imgur, couldn't be easier. Nothing shady, no private information revealed.- Introduced me to this neat website: http://e.ggtimer.com/35minutes
Cons
- You have to wait 35 minutes twice, so it technically takes over an hour to do this, but I paused the hit timer (cool feature, Chris) during the wait to get an accurate time on the actual work involved. It might even be less than my 6 minutes, but I read the directions like 5 times because it seemed too easy.- Had to browse through the news, which is depressing these days.

Pros
This time includes the time I had to spend waiting for the correct time to take the screen shot. It had to be taken at exactly 11:35 AM. The actual work was quick and easy. Take a screenshot, upload it to the website the give you and submit the url of the image.Cons
