Earn online as an Amazon Mechanical Turk worker

Don't you just love shopping on Amazon? There are a gazillion stuff to buy for yourself and your loved ones!

I haven't bought anything just yet, but soon! I want the Kindle 36+WiFi for myself. And since I'm always short for outright cash for such luxury must-have gadget, I decide to find ways online to get it.

One of the many ways that I could earn online is by completing small tasks or HITs  by becoming an Amazon Mechanical Turk.

According to Amazon Mechanical Turk, this is how I will get paid:

If you are a US based Worker, you can choose to disburse your earnings to your U.S. bank account or to an Amazon.com gift certificate balance. Workers in India have the option of receiving bank checks denominated in Indian Rupees or disbursing their earnings to an Amazon.com gift certificate. All other international Workers can only disburse to an Amazon.com gift certificate.

 There are a lot more one can do as an Amazon Mechanical Turk worker : transcribe audio recordings, translation, write articles and blog posts and many other micro-jobs. I already have $12+ on my Amazon Payments account just by answering questions, basic data entry  and writing small articles.
