10,000 Two Cent Sheep

Posted on May 25th, 2006

This is what happens when you can outsource your labor to web workers. The Sheep Market paid $.02 for 10,000 people to draw sheep online. The results were then posted online, along with the ability to see hoe each sheep was drawn. They were recruited through Amazon’s Mechanical Turk. This seems to be a fascinating new way of farming out work. Hmmm, I wonder what I can pay 100 people $.01 to do?
