It's creepy how I started looking into microworkers before you put this thread up xD
In any case, I have an account now and have been looking around.

Microworkers was one of the first sites I started working on about 3-4 years ago. I stopped doing that site when I found work because Mturk always had work up and there were times when I wanted to work but there was no work available for me on microworkers. Not sure if it's the same now. I would love to hear how it is now as well, so I will be following this thread :)

Sorry... this site isn't letting me edit posts right now and I just reread what I wrote and realize it didn't make as much sense as I thought it did Lol

I joined Microworkers and mturk at the exact same time (summer of 2014). I just noticed mturk had more work up and microworkers always had terrible 2-3 dollar an hour stuff up

Microworkers is not good. I opened an account and checked around. Most of the jobs were low paying and required you to use your social media sites. Also, saw a couple of Youtube videos and online posts about how shady the pay was. It seems some workers were waiting weeks for their payout. No thanks. Do your research before you commit to becoming a freelancer on certain sites.

You should not be sharing your personal information on any Freelance work that you do, especially for surveys with very little payout.

The interface on Microworkers could use some more functionality. It looks like there is no qualification system at all unlike MTurk.

This was the first HIT for $$$ website I worked and to this day is still the worst.I put in a ridiculous amount of hour to meet their withdrawal requirements. They pump faked me on sending my money 3 times. It ended up taking 2 months to get that $50. Overall, horrible experience but gave me a clue that working from home on HITs for money was an up and coming thing.
